You are able to play QuickTime videos in iTunes by going to File > “Add File to Library” or “Add Folder to Library”. But if you try to import videos downloaded from Vimeo, YouTube, Hulu, Facebook, etc. to iTunes for more convenient playback, then the movies will grey out, and nothing really seems to happen, the video doesn’t play. Is there a way to play Vimeo videos in iTunes Library? I couldn’t find anything really through my own research on this. Seems like a natural thing for iTunes to support this behavior for Vimeo, since it’s a pretty popular and well known video site. I’m on Windows 7 home premium 64 bit, using iTunes 12.1.1 With iTunes, you can play, download, organize, sort, sync and keep digital contents including music and video files.

H.264 MP4 is an ideal file type for iTunes. With it, I can fast convert Vimeo videos to iTunes compatible format like MP4, MOV, M4V with
