Stream for videos on OneDrive and SharePoint continues to improve rapidly with two new features.
TL;DR:
Microsoft will soon be updating the web player for audio & video files that are stored in OneDrive and SharePoint (including when those files are embedded in Teams, Yammer, and SharePoint web parts) with two new features called About and Custom Thumbnail. Due mid-May to mid-June.
Details:
About will enable you, and colleagues with edit permissions, to add and edit a title/description on video or audio files. Viewers will be able to see this information along with non-editable fields like upload date, owner name, filename, and area path.
Custom thumbnail, located in Video Settings, will allow you, and colleagues with edit permissions, to change the default thumbnail by uploading an image or selecting a frame from the video. This custom thumbnail will be used throughout Microsoft 365.
Availability:
Due mid-May to mid-June.
