Trim feature removed in new Stream?
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)
JaebiAAMC Where did you see that? I'm looking at our Stream and I'm not seeing it yet.
What does everyone else do? We have a number of recordings we need to process of webinars and I'm wondering what the fastest workflow is.
Regardless, you can go to the Microsoft Store and download Clipchamp or download it from https://clipchamp.com for free and use it to trim videos and then upload them into SharePoint/OneDrive/Teams. However, you'll want to use the Export function to make them a .mp4 format and to minimize the size as much as you can.
One downfall of Clipchamp right now is that it doesn't compress the video file size as much as Teams does.
