Hi,

Users won't need a Microsoft Stream license assigned if you want users to only record and download the recordings. This will mean that the recordings aren't stored in Microsoft Stream but are instead stored in Azure Media Services (AMS) with a 21-day limit before it's deleted. It's not something at this point that an admin can control or manage including the ability to delete it.

The scenario above is applicable if not using the new meeting recording storage mode (OneDrive/SharePoint).

  Yes. Can’t be done today. Have to wait the 21 days.

    Hi All
    
    I Hope this can help some of you. I have found a way to delete the meeting recording (within Teams).
    
    Only the person who initiated the recording can delete the recording. This person will need to 'Join' the meeting again > Click 'Show conversation' icon and locate the recording > click the 3 dots and select Delete.
    
    Hope this helps you all, any questions please ask or if you have found a better method please let me know.
