Vimeo import

A Vimeo original or film is missing

The importer can transfer only files that Vimeo makes available to the connected account. A playable Vimeo video is not proof that its original file is available.

Reviewed 2026-09-09 · uncompressed.io support

What to do

  1. Confirm that the connected Vimeo account is the one that owns the film.
  2. Read the importer’s source label and file size before selecting it.
  3. If only a Vimeo re-encoded version is offered, decide whether that version is suitable for your purpose.
  4. If you still have your original export, upload that file directly to preserve that export.

What to expect

You know which file will be transferred and can avoid mistaking a rendition for the original.

Keep in mind

Availability depends on the source account, permissions and source-file retention. There is no supported bypass for a file the account cannot access.

Still need help?

Send the film title and the source label to support; keep private video links out of public channels.
