When downloading from Vimeo.com, even if you provide video URL that starts with https, the video is downloaded over http. The right choice is to download the video URL over https.

It sems that they are downloaded over https:

Could you post the url with the problem and the output of youtube-dl --verbose URL?

Check this:

youtube-dl -g --ignore-config --verbose 'https://player.vimeo.com/video/56015672'

It outputs something like this:
http://av.vimeo.com/.../aaa.mp4?token2=ttt&aksessionid=sss
In general, it reminds that youtube-dl does not make a normalized version of URL before downloading. In youtube.com, there is/was also the same issue. It usually differs if you use youtube.com/watch?v=iii, youtu.be/iii, or youtube.com/embed/iii
