embedded vimeo not working due to "privacy settings"
Hi, I'm encountering an issue on a website where the embedded vimeo video says "Sorry - Because of its privacy settings, this video cannot be played here."
The thing is I've watched this exact video on this exact site before, the videos were working just a few days ago, and after contacting the web administrator, nobody else is having an issue with the videos. I did some further investigating: - Embedded youtube videos are playing just fine on the same site - Embedded vimeo videos are playing fine on a different site - Videos on vimeo.com play without any issue
Additionally, I tried: - Clearing my browser cache/history - Restarting Firefox - Updating flash and other plugins - Disabling/removing other plugins (I didn't think this was the issue, but just in case) - Logging in and out of the site where the video is uploaded - Logging in and out of vimeo - Restarting my computer - Ran a few virus scans with nothing found And the videos are still not working, giving the same message about the privacy setting that makes no place.
The videos seem to work fine when I log in and view them on Chrome.
(Also, just an FYI: I will not upgrade to Firefox 23. I've tried it previously and had to revert back because of the way it screws up zoom levels on every website. I will happily install the next Firefox update that fixes this issue.)
