Hi, MS announced that it will be possible to insers videos from new stream directly to OneNote and users can watch the video within OneNote. It was specified, that it will be since version 2306. However, in our company, we have SemiAnnual with version 2408 and Current channel version 2506. Users with current channels can watch such video in OneNote, but users with SE 2408 can see the video in OneNote, but cannot watch it. So, this feature depends on the channel version? Or the behaviour is because of something else?
Thank for helping

    Hello @Krajnak TomasKrajnak Tomas

    Thank you for reaching out to the Q&A forum! 

    To support you better, please take note this point: 

    As you mentioned, Microsoft has introduced the ability to embed and play videos from Microsoft Stream (on SharePoint) directly within OneNote starting from version 2306. This feature allows users to paste a video link into their notes and watch the video directly within the OneNote app; no browser required. 

    For reference: OneNote using Stream on SharePoint 

    However, the availability of this feature depends on the Microsoft 365 update channel

    • Users on the Current Channel (e.g., version 2506) can fully use this feature and play videos directly in OneNote. 
    • Users on the Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel (SE) (e.g., version 2408) may see the video frame but cannot play the video yet, as the feature has not been fully rolled out to SE channel users at this time. 

    Microsoft typically releases new features to the Current Channel first, and then gradually rolls them out to other channels like SE, which are designed for stability and receive updates less frequently. 

    I kindly recommend waiting for future updates to the Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel, where full support for Stream video playback in OneNote is expected to be included.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
