Teams Meeting Recording without Stream
Here is a bit more detail on the entire process: a meeting is recorded in the Teams service, and it remains there until it can upload it to Stream. Once it can upload it to Stream, a link to the recording in Stream is inserted in the related Team channel or chat, and it the video remains in Stream only. If the recording can't be uploaded to Stream, for whatever reason (maybe the user doesn't have access to Stream or the user doesn't have a license to Stream), it remains in the Teams service for 7 days (this has been recently increased to 20 days) and a user can download it from Teams and move it somewhere else (since the user can't access Stream, he or she can upload it to the files tab in Teams or his OneDrive for Business, as an example). The number of days can NOT be changed, because it's really just a temporary place to store the recording until it can get moved to Stream. After the deadline, the video is deleted from the service for good. I hope that helps you understand why different people see different things (once user can access Stream, and the other cannot).
LinusCansbyRecording is done in the teams client, no 3rd party addons.
I've got a stream license so can't test, but our users are reporting

I appreciate your quick answer!
Yes, our recordings appear in the conversation but I don't know why I can see only these menu items when I click on the ... on the video.
Could you tell me where is the download command for your users?
(the Open in Microsoft Stream doesnt work of course)
O365EDU - Strangely, there are no user or admin controls for deleting those posts or temporarily stored videos. Today, the only way to remove those is to submit a support ticket and request the video be deleted on your behalf. I believe the Teams product group was fast-tracking a fix for this, but I haven't seen it yet.

We license all of our users for Teams and Stream but only allow 3 people to post videos in Stream. So when people in Teams record their meetings they get an error and a link to download their videos (available for 20 days). This experience is expected, its a company policy that only 3 people can post videos to Stream and those using Teams for teaching just download and upload to Panopto or Canvas.We have people who occasionally record meetings (That are not uploaded to Stream) and want/need to delete them before the 20 days passes.
How do you delete these videos that are available for download or even the posts about the meeting recordings ?This is what it looks like for someone licensed for Stream but denied access to upload to Stream. I can't find how to delete either the file or the message about the meeting recording.
Recording from a user licensed for Stream but not allowed to upload.
This is what happens for someone who is licensed for Stream and also granted upload access.
You can delete these videos from Stream and the link no longer works in the Team but the post about it remains.
Meeting recorded by somone licensed for Stream and has right to upload to Stream.
Only Stream Admins and those explicitly listed here have access to upload Teams meetings to Stream. By default I believe MS gives everyone this access.
Stream Permissions
sure. I can still reproduce the problem.
Edge version is: up to date DEV 83.0.478.10
When I copy a video link from MS Teams with ... / "Get link" - "Get Stream Link" / Copy
a nd try to open it in Edge, I get now this error
But I can open it with Edge.Zsombor Fritz - can you elaborate on your comment? I know there was a developer build of Edge a few weeks back that resulted in unusual behavior on web.microsoftstream.com, but that was resolved. I'm not aware of any issues with the public build of Edge. Could you confirm which version of Edge you are using (which I think is 80.0.361.111), and whether others in your organization with the same build are seeing the same issue?
-Chris
ok, I've got the solution. The Steam website doesn't work with the new Edge with Chromium....that's all 😉
Deleted 🙂 As I thought is it because I don't have a Stream license I bought an Office 365 E3 license for my user yesterday which contains a licence for Stream too. I thought it will change the situation but nothing changed. Unfortunately I even still don't have access to Stream (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-stream-forum/can-t-access-microsoft-stream/m-p/1246732#)
So now I'm really sad.
-Zsombor-That's what's confusing things. What you experience is what I would expect. Anyhow asked our TAM to investigate, might be because we are technically licensed for stream.

Thank you for trying to help me!
That's strange. Now I tried it in the web browser but it's the same as in the native client and it differs from what you mentioned here.
After I record a meeting the recorded video appears in the chat but different way as for you.
I get a preview picture, and when I click on the picture it starts playing / I can't download it - I don't get any option to download....
-Zsombor- One of our users has given me this
MS Teams: Recording meetings March 2020
1). Record the meeting - option for the meeting organiser
2). When hanging up
3). A link to the meeting recording is added to the Teams channel conversation
4). Both the meeting organiser and the invited person in my test could download the MP4 file.
The test account was using a web browser and the source of the download was visible to that user
