Gif: "[Question] Has anyone who does commercial work with cinemagraph use Vimeo as a host?"


Sorry quite a long post ahead.I am in the midst of using cinemagraph to do some commercial work. Gifs are quite heavy and the 256 colours are not working out for me. So I am trying to use embedded video instead to display the cinemagraphs. I have two options right now, either use Flixel or Vimeo as a host.The pros for using Flixel is the ease of embedding for clients, but it costs quite a bit if I'm only using them for hosting. Furthermore, it only allows 100 000 views per month, after which it is additional $199/year. I'm not sure if it is 100 000 views per image or in total for all the images. Maybe I'm overthinking things and 100 000 views is actually more than sufficient.Vimeo is cheaper, I can modify the embedded player with a Plus account. However I find the playback not as seamless as Flixel and the autoplay does not seem to work everytime. And I can't seem to find a way to disable the controls so visitors cannot pause the video.So has anyone used Vimeo? Or should I not cheap out and just get Flixel instead. via /r/Cinemagraphs https://www.reddit.com/r/Cinemagraphs/comments/8jba70/question_has_anyone_who_does_commercial_work_with/?utm_source=ifttt
