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 I think a limitation has been missed off. What about the ability to trim a meeting recording?
Re: What about the ability to trim a meeting recording?
I want to know this too. I couldn't find this missing feature on any roadmap (although I might have used the wrong search terms - apologies of so).
Does anyone know when the ability to trim a Teams Meeting recording video will appear on the OneDrive version (like used to be available in Stream). If you can link to the roadmap or feature request page for this, that would be awesome.
- Hello, all I know is that it will be available (being worked on) and is part of the existing "feature gap" as a consequence of the new storage location.
- Hi, will come but not until ~Q1 2021 as far as I know. In other words a couple of functionality gaps right now.
I have a couple of questions. I've opted into the change so I can preview the features ahead of a wider rollout.
1) There doesn't appear to be a natural way for external users to request access to meeting recordings. As an external user, when clicking on a recording within the meeting chat, I am presented with a Stream error 'Looks like there is an issue'. With the request access flow feature, I would assume external users would be presented with a screen to request access.
2) Meeting captions/transcript are not available. I understand that captions are not available in preview, but what exactly does this mean? If our tenant opts in to the OneDrive recording experience this year, are we technically previewing it? Will this leave us with a features gap where both captions and transcript on recordings are unavailable?
