How do I stream on my TV, what’s the best way?
For TV streaming, we recommend using an HDMI cable laptop hookup or Google Chromecast with your mobile device. Performances can also be viewed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device.
We also recommend using Apple AirPlay on your iPhone to cast to the TV. AppleTV is known to have streaming-delay issues with Vimeo. If you are using AppleTV make sure your application is up to date with the latest software release. Be advised: it is possible you will have streaming issues with AppleTV casting, issues are more common with an out-of-date AppleTV application.
