Google has rolled out the Video indexing feature recently. For all my vimeo implementation I get the following warning:

Google could not determine the prominent video on the page

I noticed that Google shows me two Video URL sources

  1. https://vimeo.com/sitemap_media_redirect?video_id=VIDEO_ID (Provided by video hosting platform)
  2. https://player.vimeo.com/video/VIDEO_ID (Source: HTML tag)

The video is implemented like this:

<iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/VIDEO_ID" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Any idea how to solve this issue?

The Vimeo player embed has no control over the google video index, that's unique to google and you should reach out to their support channels.
