hey there, I just had the same problem with a wmv video. But some research showed me that wmv won't ever be supported. HTML5 can't handle it so the vime player won't either. Just wanted to let you know, even though this issue is really old.
There is a way to show wmv videos with a Windows Media Plugin but I guess it's way easier to convert your videos to mp4.
