What Resolutions Does Tappla Support?
Tappla uses Vimeo’s adaptive streaming infrastructure, which supports multiple quality levels:
240p, 360p, 540p – Low-bandwidth fallback options
720p (HD Ready)
1080p (Full HD)
2160p (4K Ultra HD)
Note: What viewers actually see depends on their internet connection and device capabilities.
What You Need to Enable High-Res Playback
To make sure your videos stream in Full HD or 4K, check the following:
1. Upload in High Resolution
Vimeo only creates 1080p or 4K versions if the original file is at least that resolution.
We recommend:
Uploading files in 1920x1080 (Full HD) or 3840x2160 (4K)
Using a high enough bitrate (e.g. 10–20 Mbps for 1080p)
2. Use the Right Vimeo Plan
Higher resolutions are only available on:
Vimeo Pro
Vimeo Business
Vimeo Premium
Free/basic accounts do not support 1080p or 4K playback.
3. Set the Correct Privacy & Embed Settings
In Vimeo, go to your video’s settings:
“Who can watch?” → set to Anyone, People with the private link, or Hide from Vimeo.com
“Where can this be embedded?” → set to Anywhere or add Tappla’s domain
This ensures Tappla can access and stream the video.
How Adaptive Streaming Works
Vimeo delivers video via HLS adaptive streaming. That means:
Each video includes multiple quality versions in one
.m3u8stream.Viewers automatically get the best version based on their internet speed, device, and screen size.
If you uploaded a 1080p video, that version is available — but someone with slow internet may still see 720p.
