Microsoft Stream January 2024 – Updates Changes
Very interesting changes coming to Microsoft Stream platform…
Microsoft Stream Classic will retire on February 15, 2024
My FAVORITE: Virtual teleprompter
The teleprompter feature is a new addition to Microsoft Stream that allows you to add a scrolling script to your screen recording or video. This can be helpful if you need to read from a script while you are recording.
Others:
- Stream in Microsoft Teams:
- Analytics on Video
- Screen and Camera recording ( Canva style)
- New Editing features
Resources:

- Screen recording: The new screen recorder allows you to record your screen, audio, and webcam. You can also add text, drawings, stickers, and a teleprompter to your recordings.
- Camera recording: The new camera recording feature allows you to record videos of yourself. You can also record audio only.
- Playlists: You can now create playlists of videos using Microsoft Lists. Playlists can be saved to your list or to a team.
- The teleprompter feature is a new addition that allows you to add a scrolling script to your screen recording or video. This can be helpful if you need to read from a script while you are recording.
- Stream in Microsoft Teams: There is a new Stream app for Microsoft Teams that brings the Stream homepage experience right into Teams.
- Analytics for videos: You can now see analytics for your videos, such as the number of views, viewers, and statistics over time. You can also control whether or not analytics are captured on a specific video.
- Preview experience: You can preview your videos to see what viewers will see. This is helpful for making sure that your videos are set up correctly.
- Improved SharePoint web part for Stream: The new SharePoint web part for Stream has a new view called theater view, which puts one main video front and center with a carousel of other videos below. You can also choose a grid view that shows all of the videos for a SharePoint site.
