Microsoft Onenote Videos
Shanae Maerz
I've copied the URL directly from the "share" button on the videos I've uploaded to Stream and put them in my Class Notebook. Every video prompts the user to log in and they are immediately redirected to a page that indicates that the page does not exist. Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong? This has happened on 8 different videos today.
Stream is a part of our Microsoft for Education package and the permissions are currently set for anyone within our organization. The error that was generated came from me checking to see if the videos would display in the NoteBook. So the error was caused when I clicked on the link to sign in and I definitely have permission to see my own videos!
I did discover that the hyperlink that generates above the video when it embeds on the NoteBook page does work. So you can click the hyperlink and go to the video but you cannot view the video on the NoteBook page without generating that error.
Hi there! Are you using the OneNote Win32 app or the UWP? If you're using Win32 unfortunatel you'll need to manually sign in once before the sign in is cached in your notebook. I'm surprised to hear that signing in takes you to a page that doesn't exist - that's the unexpected part. Could you send me a screencap/the link it's navigating you to? Feel free to email me directly at sar...@microsoft.com
@alex_loves_historyI have noticed the exact same issue in OneNote App on my Mac. It works in the browser version of OneNote and seems to work in the Windows version of OneNote App. This seems to be a Mac App issue.
I have the exact same problem today, Nov 3rd, 2021. I published a video on Stream in a team channel a couple of days ago. I also pasted a link to the video in a page in the Class Notebook. That day, everything worked. Today it doesn't. More specifically:
EDIT: And here I am to eat my own words. After a bit of tinkering, I clicked the "globe icon" in the upper right corner of OneNote Class notebook in Teams. This opened OneNote in the browser. There (in the browser) I had to log in again into OneNote, and miraculously OneNote inside Teams started working.
IMHO this whole authentication mechanism in Teams is complicated with many possible weak links. I know a bit about computers and can usually wiggle out of trouble, but my colleagues are turned away from Teams as soon as something like this happens. They have a choice between Teams and Google classroom and guess which one they choose when Teams has a hiccup? Don't get me wrong, I use Teams and wholeheartedly recommend it, it's just that it's a conglomerate of many complex and intricate parts.
We previously used Stream (classic) to create and embed teaching videos into OneNote pages and then set them as assignments. This worked brilliantly as the videos could be played from within OneNote.
I checked the detailed feature comparison between Classic and On SharePoint versions. While no detailed feature comparison is mentioned on this, On SharePoint is more focused on sharing with other users.
You can check this article: Detailed feature comparison to Stream (Classic)
The difference between the two can be seen by the link structure of the shared link between the On SharePoint version and the Classic version. The shared link of the On SharePoint version can also be placed in OneNote, the impact is that it will not be embedded in the form of online playback like the Classic version, and it needs to be jumped.
At the same time, I also checked the current development status of the Stream function, and there is no gain.
You can view the development roadmap at any time: -sg/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=Microsoft%20Stream%2CRolling%20out
Based on this situation, it is recommended that you switch to Classic to use this function first. I will continue to pay attention to this issue and I will let you know if there are any updates. Thank you for your unsderstanding!
Which Team responsible for this feature? OneNote or Stream? In Education embedded videos and interactive quizzes are probably the most used feature and I've been looking at the 'Under development' status for both these features ever since Stream on Sharepoint was announced.
Is is now May. This still doesn't work. I teach with flipped classroom and I'm now no longer able to upload videos to Stream Classic. So far I was able to just use the classic version of stream but that is now no longer possible. This is extremely frustrating.
