M365 Changelog: (Updated) Banner message to appear for Stream (Classic) users on migrated videos

MC678059 – Updated February 7, 2024: Microsoft has updated the content below for clarity. Thank you for your patience.

This is an important message for customers who have migrated or plan to migrate videos from Stream (Classic) to Stream (on SharePoint). 

Beginning on October 15, 2023 your users will see a banner message on top of all migrated Stream (Classic) videos when they are played. The banner will say, “This video has been migrated to Stream (on SharePoint). You accessed this video from the Stream (Classic) link, which will expire on Feb 15, 2025. If you own the content containing the Stream (Classic) link, you will need to update it with the new Stream (on SharePoint) link. Learn more

When this will happen:

October 15, 2023

How this will affect your organization:

Your end users will see a banner message. End users who are owners of migrated videos will need to update the links associated with the migrated videos if they want those links to continue working after Feb 15, 2025. See this article for information on updating links: Migration details – Microsoft Stream
