Suggestion: Add Playback Speed option in SharePoint video player
Hello, this is coming and is currently a part of the feature gap related to the change going from Stream (classic) to Stream (SharePoint). You can read more about it here, the link is directed to the roadmap specifically https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/stream/streamnew/features-new-version-stream#roadmap
Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365 (Variable playback speed (0.5-2x) for Microsoft Teams meeting recordings)
EBirch5 Hi, as far as I know the feature is still in "rolling out" status so probably hasn't hit your tenant yet.
For Teams meeting recordings saved to OneDrive & SharePoint, you'll be able to change the playback speed (0.5x - 2x) while watching the video.
You will see an icon in the bottom right corner of Teams meeting recordings that opens the Playback speed menu. This menu contains options for slower speed (0.5x), normal speed (1x), and faster speed (1.2x, 1.5x, 1.8x, and 2.0x). The setting that you chooses will persist for the duration of the browser session; you can change it at any time using the Playback speed menu.
ChristianJBergstrom Thank you for the quick response back and info on playback speed.
I am aware of the playback speed, but that is not what I'm looking for to resolve the issue. Instead, I'm specifically looking for the ability to rewind or fast forward a video launched from SharePoint.
Right now, the user experience is not a good one only being able to Play or Pause. Any attempts to move the scroll bar means the video replays.
So, that is the gap I'm hoping is being worked on in the roadmap to provide a better UX as it relates to viewing videos saved/launched from SharePoint.
Thank you!
- Hi, I am sorry but I don't know what you mean. I jump back and forth all the time when looking at meeting recordings without any issues with video replay. It's not a "fast forward" or "rewind" button I simply drag the pointer and all is good in SharePoint for me.
