Changes to meeting recordings - saved to OneDrive and SharePoint instead of Stream.

EmileRec Hello! I haven't had a chance to try this so I can't say anything about the inheritance and if they can actually delete the recording. But it's a good question and the official docs aren't clear about it.
In your scenario you're using a channel meeting and permissions are inherited from the owners and members list in the channel as per this description.
Who has the permissions to view the meeting recording?
- For non-Channel meetings, all meeting invitees, except for external users, will automatically get a personally shared link. External users will need to be explicitly added to the shared list by the meeting organizer or the person who started the meeting recording.
- For Channel meetings, permissions are inherited from the owners and members list in the channel.

Then you have a couple of disclaimers saying:
- "Only the organizer of the meeting (non-channel) and the person who started the recording will be able to edit the recording. But everyone invited to the meeting will be able to view the recording."
- "In Q1 of 2021, only the meeting recorder and organizer will be able to download the meeting recording. All other attendees will only be able to view it."

So I suppose you have to edit the permissions when recording a channel meeting (SharePoint) as the permissions are inherited. At least for now.
ChristianBergstrom Hi, Does this mean that all Teams videos will now be processed by the Azure Media Services instead ? If so what are the plans for this service to not just be hosted in the US ?
Thanks
One thing to be aware of is that these recording will come out of your existing SharePoint Online and OneDrive for business storage allowances.
Video records are far larger than other media and average about 400MB per hour. So quotas will be used up much quicker.
Microsoft have announced that next year they will add in a setting in the Teams Admin setting to set a default expiration of 60 days for teams meeting recordings with owners being able to change thins in addition to being able to user retention policies if you have E5 compliance.
