For those of you who were using my javascript to load an HTML5 video tag for your Vimeo embeds, I have good news. 

Vimeo Pro accounts now generate new default embed code. A Universal Player within an iFrame automatically detects what kind of device is viewing the video and chooses the optimum player based on the device's capabilities. 

I guess that's good news even if you weren't using my script. ;)
