Sharing Content with Microsoft Stream

  • When sharing videos, every video will need to be shared individually
  • Any videos in a channel will also need to be shared individually
  • Channels only organize the videos you’ve uploaded; it is different from YouTube
  • To learn about sharing content with your students, see pages 3-7 of our Stream documentation.

Groups and Stream

  • Create a private group to allow students or others to share video content just within the context of the group
  • Creates an Office 365 group which will have a shared inbox, shared calendar, and shared document library, see pages 6 on our Stream documentation

Transcripts

  • Stream autogenerates a caption file when enabled while uploading your video.
  • You can download the autogenerate caption file and convert it to a readable plain text file.
  • If you already have a caption file for your video, you can upload it with your video.

Screen Recording

Features include:

  • Record directly from Stream
  • Record up to 15 minutes
  • Use your webcam for picture-in-picture while screen recording
  • Use your microphone to record your narrations
  • No extra software needed

Learn more on creating a screen recording from Microsoft and page 14 of our Stream documentation.

Screen Recorder works on the following browsers:

  • Microsoft Edge for Windows 10 Microsoft Edge- version 79 and above on Windows 10 and macOS
  • Google Chrome-version 74 and above on Windows 10 and macOS
  • Microsoft Stream Mobile on iOS and Android is recommended for smartphones and tablets
  • Smartphone and tablet browsers are NOT supported
  • Safari for macOS is NOT supported.

Other limitations:

  • Recording system audio is available only on Windows, not macOS
  • Including the camera in the recording is available only when recording the entire screen, not when recording an application window or browser tab.
  • Screen recordings are limited to a maximum length of 15 minutes. For longer content, break up your video into shorter segments.
