Vimeo embed problems

Having trouble with Vimeo embeds, when I place embed code into the field and hit validate, it passes muster. But when I go to publish it says invalid code. It does look like the validator is doing some monkey biz with the code, when I press the validate button it seems to strip out some of the embed code.

OH MIGHTY LUCKY! What UP?!?

**UPDATE** I cut and pasted an embed code from a diffrent vimeo video that had sifted here and matched the code line for line and that seems to work, but I would be curious if anyone else is having trouble with this.

Can you PM me or comment here the embed code that wasn't working? It's tough to know without seeing the actual code, but my wild first guess for such problems is always that maybe the specified width is too large.

Alrighty, here is the code to paste in from the vimeo embed command:


Real-life "Internet People" performed by NNN from justin on Vimeo.

and then paste it in, and validate and this is what validator spits back out:



along with the : Embed code is valid and does not belong to another video

then hit the submit button and .... *Video Embed Code *Invalid Entry

as I said before I looked at one of the previously posted vimeo clips that have cleared the queue and edit the embed code to match and it went through.

So I'm thinking that Vimeo has changed their code, the sift's example embed page shows a different embed feature than the current one on vimeo.

Hope that helps.
