How to connect a Vimeo stream to your event
If you stream with Vimeo Live, you can embed the player inside your event
so attendees watch without leaving Peewah.
1. Open your event in Vimeo
Go to Library → Live Events and select the event you are streaming, or
create it.
2. Get the embed code
Inside the event settings click Embed. Vimeo lets you choose what to
include:
- Player only
- Player with chat
- Interaction tools
💡 If you are already running Q&A inside Peewah, take the player only.
Two chats in the same page splits the conversation and neither one gets used.
You get a code like this:
<iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/VIDEO_ID"
width="640" height="360"
frameborder="0"
allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture"
allowfullscreen></iframe>
Copy the whole <iframe …></iframe> tag.
3. Add it to your event
1. Go to General → Stages.
2. Select the stage where the session happens.
3. Click the three-dot menu and choose Streaming.
4. Pick Vimeo Live and paste the code.
5. Save.
4. Check it
The Vimeo player appears inside your event page.
💡 Before the stream starts it shows a "scheduled" card, and that is
correct — it does not mean the embed failed. When you go live the video
starts on its own for everyone watching.
What is not correct is an empty space. That means the code did not take.
