Can we connect Vidyo and Vimeo to Canvas

Background:

We stream almost all of our lessons using the Vidyo system. When we are finished for the day, the recording from the day's lesson is uploaded to Vimeo. 

To make this more accessible for students we have a link in Canvas to the online-classroom which means they don't need to type in a URL. We do the same with the resulting film on Vimeo, we copy the embed code from Vimeo and paste this into Canvas.

Problem:

Or not so much of a problem as an irritation:

We use other LTI apps in Canvas that give us direct access to our resources from different suppliers. However, I can't find any LTI's that connect correctly to either Vidyo or Vimeo. Vimeo can connect to public films on their website but not the private(hidden) films that we store there. There is or rather has been an app called Vidyo For Canvas(VFC) but I have been in contact with the creator, IDSolutions and they say they don't support this app any more.

Question: 

Does anybody have any advice that would help us have a tighter integration with Vimeo and Vidyo?

Grateful for any help.
