Trim feature removed in new Stream?
- Mar 14, 2023
I know that not having trim in Stream (on SharePoint) is painful. Full video editing will come with clipchamp being added to enterprise later this year.
It's been a long road for us in the product group to get to a plan for what to do in Stream. We apologize for how long it's taken us. It's not easy for us to just add back the ability that was in Stream (Classic) to SharePoint, the underlying architecture and storage is very different.
Thank you for all the feedback you've shared and all the votes in the ideas forum. We've finally been able to land on a design for a simple trim option directly in Stream. We aren't able to share a timeline or roadmap item yet until we get further on the engineering design and start coding.
Feel free to keep adding your votes and comments to this item in the Ideas forum. (I consolidated the other few ideas into this single one that joined all the votes together):
Support for video trimming (start, end, & middle) · Community (microsoft.com)
BHBrookfield I've just spent the best part of a day downloading a large workshop recording, where I then spent less than 5 minutes trimming the last 1 minute of footage in ClipChamp only to now wait for the recording to be uploaded back into the project folder (losing the chapters I made before I realised the trim feature had gone from Stream).
Previously this would have taken me just that "less than 5 minutes" part, and I wouldn't have lost the chapters I made.
Find a way of allowing users to trim videos, even just the beginnings and ends, in Stream. It's a pretty essential feature for a great many Teams users.
