Far I’ve found that giving the iframe a background colour will alter the timeline number colour, but other than that I’m not seeing a way to change the player’s controls colour other than the Vimeo embed code itself.

... iframe { background-color: #000; }

I’d Google’d this quite a bit, not found anything unfortunately so I turn to stack. I’m looking to change player controls. I have a slight feeling this can be done with jQuery maybe? Grab the default colour and change it, or something would be the idea.

    As you said it can be achieved with options in Vimeo’s embed code.

    Alternatively, use those embed options to enable the Javascript API with api=1 then you can change options and set the color via Javascript with setColor().

    Vimeo are working on an embeddable HTML5 player in which case you’ll have full control over the player controls.

    Hope that helps
