How to tell if the document library have Stream (on SharePoint) enabled?

Hi Folks, Some of our sites in the site collection are in modern and some are in classic. How do I tell if the document libraries in the modern sites have Stream (on SharePoint) enabled? Thanks.

    Hello Vanessa Martin9 

     

    you can't activate it on a single site, it's a concept, from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/stream/streamnew/new-stream:

     

    Stream (on SharePoint) is uploading and using video files directly stored in SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive

    Stream (Classic) is using video files stored on the retiring microsoftstream.com service

     

    For a single modern sites it's a video collection page available, add the following to your url:

    /_Layouts/15/Video_Collections.aspx 

     

    Hope this helps.

     

    Best, Dave
