  "description": "Removal – Dynamic Object Removal for Final Cut Pro\nEmpty the street without leaving the timeline, with Removal from Pixel Film Studios.\n\nRemoval takes a tripod-locked shot and clears it. Press Analyze once and it samples the entire clip, works out what every pixel looks like when nothing is standing in front of it, and builds a clean plate of the empty background. From there the shot composites itself — people, traffic and passers-by lift straight out of frame and the empty location shows through. No masks, no rotoscoping, no keyframes.\n\nWhen the automatic result needs a hand, paint it. Green zones keep the footage exactly as it was shot — a subject you want to stay, water, trees, anything that should stay alive. Red zones force the clean plate through wherever you want something gone. Use both on the same frame and whatever you draw last wins, and Softness fades a stroke out at its rim so a zone blends in instead of switching on at a hard edge.\n\nThe Wand selects a whole object in a single click, and it works two ways depending on what you clicked. Something that MOVES is found by how it differs from the clean plate — exactly the way Removal sees it. Something STILL, like a bush in a central divider or a sign on a wall, is found by colour, with a Tolerance slider controlling how far the selection spreads. Option-click takes a selection back out. The Mask tool draws a shape point by point when you want the boundary exact.\n\nIf the plate itself has a gap — a doorway that was never empty, a bench somebody sat on all day — the Patch Editor fixes the background itself. Scrub to a frame where that spot WAS clear, paint or Wand-select it, and press Rebuild Plate: the plate is built again with that region taken from the frame you chose. Patch as many spots as you like, each from a different frame.\n\nWatch what you are doing at every stage. The viewer switches between the finished Composite, the reconstructed Clean Plate, the Removal Matte showing exactly what is being replaced, and the Original Source for a straight before and after. Edge Feather softens the join and Grain Match adds the shot's own grain back over the replaced area so it never reads as suspiciously clean.\n\nPerfect for:\n• Emptying a busy street, plaza or storefront\n• Removing tourists and passers-by from a locked-off establishing shot\n• Taking traffic out of a city view\n• Clearing a set of crew, stands and equipment\n• Real estate and architectural walkthroughs\n• Time-lapse cleanup\n\nFeatures:\n• One-press analysis builds a clean background plate from the whole clip\n• Fast, Standard and High quality — 16, 32 or 64 samples\n• Plate Bias tunes how the plate decides, for stubborn ghosts\n• Automatic compensation for slight camera drift\n• Green Keep and red Remove zones, painted per pixel\n• Soft-edged brush with adjustable Softness, plus a soft eraser\n• Wand selection by motion or by colour, with Tolerance\n• Mask tool for exact, point-by-point boundaries\n• Plate Patches — rebuild any part of the background from a clearer frame\n• Sensitivity, Edge Feather and Grain Match for the final blend\n• Four viewer modes: Composite, Clean Plate, Removal Matte, Original Source\n• Two full editors with zoom, pan, scrubbing and undo\n• Universal binary for Apple silicon and Intel\n\nLearn more at pixel film studios dot com\n\n#FinalCutPro #FCPX #PixelFilmStudios #ObjectRemoval #VFX #VideoEditing #MotionGraphics #PostProduction",

Images, tags and other lists stay with their parent result instead of creating extra rows. Invalid or unavailable inputs, inputs with no results, and requests that fail after all retries produce a row with status: failed. At most one failed row is saved per input; it includes error_code and error_message explaining the outcome. A normal end of pagination after collected results does not add a failed row.

Vimeo scraping use cases 🎯

Filmmaker discovery

Find creators by keyword and review their public portfolios.

Creative sourcing

Research topic-related videos and curated channels such as Staff Picks.

Showcase cataloging

Export video entries from public showcases and albums.

Studio benchmarking

Compare profile descriptions, portfolios and visible audience figures.

Audience response research

Collect root comments and public liker profiles for selected videos.

Pricing and saved-result behavior 💰

See the Actor's Pricing tab for the active pricing model and current rate. Store settings may change, so this README does not claim a fixed cost.

Under dataset-item pricing:

• Each collected item saved in the dataset is one result.
• Images, tags and other values attached to that item do not create additional rows.
• Automatic retry attempts do not create extra dataset rows.
• A saved failed row is also one billable dataset item, including invalid inputs, unavailable items, no results, or exhausted retries. At most one failed row is saved per input, including when some results were already collected.
• maxResults caps all saved rows for each input, including its failed row. Repeated copies of the same input are processed once. More inputs or a higher limit can produce more saved results.

Vimeo scraper API and integrations 🔌

Replace $ACTOR_ID with the ID shown in the Actor API tab and $APIFY_TOKEN with your token.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/$ACTOR_ID/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"mode":"video_search","searchQueries":["nature"],"maxResults":10}'

Use schedules for recurring collection, webhooks for completion notifications, and Apify integrations for Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, cloud storage, a CRM or your own application.

Reliability, retries, and public-data limits ⚠️

Temporary connection errors, timeouts and access restrictions are retried automatically, up to five attempts. Invalid inputs save a failed row without an HTTP request; confirmed unavailable items save a failed row without unnecessary retries. Exhausted retries also save a failed row. Results already collected remain available if a later request fails, and normal pagination completion adds no error row. Collection also stops after two consecutive fully processed pages add no new results, even if the website provides another cursor. Required detail lookups are completed before checking a page; new results reset the counter, and independent reply branches are checked separately. Failures while initializing the Actor, saving data or scheduling requests stop the run instead of being reported as a failed website result.

Only public profiles, videos and collections are included; password-protected or private videos are not unlocked.

Video Comments collects top-level comments and available reply counts.

Vimeo controls which information is publicly available. Removed, private or restricted items may be unavailable, and optional values can be null or empty. A run can still fail if the results cannot be saved.

Frequently asked questions ❓

Does it require an account on Vimeo?

No. You do not need to provide an account, password or login cookies. Only publicly available information is collected.

How does maxResults work?

It limits the number of saved results separately for every input. The minimum is 1. With maxResults set to 10, each input returns at most 10 available results. A detail lookup normally returns one record per input.

Can I collect videos from a showcase?

Yes. Showcase Videos supports public Vimeo showcases and albums.

Can I export the profiles that liked a video?

Video Likes collects the public liker profiles exposed for the selected video.

Why are some fields empty?

The website may not publish that value, or the field may belong to a different collection mode. Missing values remain null or empty instead of being guessed.

Can I export the results to a spreadsheet?

Yes. Download CSV, Excel or JSON from the Apify dataset. All returned fields are included in the same results table.

Support and responsible use 🛟

For a reproducible issue, share the run ID, selected mode, result limit and a safe public example through the support channel. Never disclose access tokens, passwords or proxy credentials.

Use public Vimeo information lawfully and responsibly. Follow applicable privacy, copyright, data-protection, contractual and platform requirements when storing, analyzing or redistributing results.
