Youtube has better quality then vimeo?

My February video is really good quality on vimeo and youtube. The quality is the same. My January video, which was encoded the exact same way starts out in bad quality and you press “watch in high quality”

My February video doesn’t have an option “watch in high quailty” but it is still better quality. than my January video in high quality.

I also like the size of my video on youtube better than the one on vimeo.
The embeding on vimeo says height= 300, width=400
on youtube, the embeding says height= 295, width=480

Questions

  1. Why is my February video better quality than my January, when they were uploaded with the same settings.

  2. How can I my February video on Vimeo be the same size as it is on Youtube.

Help is appreciated. I’m confused. :thinking:
