When I hide a YouTube video, it stops playing. However, this is not the case for Vimeo videos. Is there another way to stop a Vimeo video?

To restore the SRC attribute, use the following before clearing:

var source = $('iframe#yourVideoId').attr('src');

Next, SRC attribute clear:

$('iframe#yourVideoId').attr('src', '');

Callback previous SRC attribute:

$('iframe#yourVideoId').attr('src', source);
