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.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/tmr-meeting-recording-change#frequently-asked-questions
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.
I tried testing this to our tenant. This is my scenario:
- 2 internal users in the call (the organizer and another presenter)
- One user does the recording
- Recording is visible in the chat
- The one who triggered the recording sees it in their OneDrive storage
- PROBLEM: The other user sees the recording in chat, however, sees the error as seen in my screenshot below.
Am I missing any setting?

natpascual1330 Hi, the permissions follow the meeting type and who clicked on record. The storage location also depends on this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/tmr-meeting-recording-change#permissions-or-role-based-access
If all seems to be OK but still get the error message you might be better of creating a support ticket with Microsoft. If you're not an admin yourself reach out to your IT admin to get help with that.

Noted on that. Here's another set of screenshots based on the permissions. Which is weird, it says it's shared with me (Nat Pascual), but if I check my permission, it says The user might not be able to access the item. But, at the bottom it says I have Read permissions. Am I understanding my having Read permissions wrong?

natpascual1330 I think I may have hit the same issue you are having with permissions. Did you get this resolved?
