I am using Vimeo's API for the users of my app to upload videos, or replace their existing video with a new one. I am using a Vimeo Client to help me make the calls in my Django Application. Uploading works without any issues, but when I try to replace an existing video with a new one, the thumbnail stays as the old video. If you play the video, it will play the new one, but the thumbnail never changes.
