Affected Workloads

  • OneDrive for Business

When this will happen

  •  Targeted Release: We expect to begin the targeted release rollout in early August and be fully rolled out by approximately mid-October (previously early September)
  • General Availability: We expect to begin the GA rollout in late October (previously early September) and expect that release to be fully rolled out by late November (previously late September)

How this will affect your organization

Users 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 a user chooses will persist for the duration of their browser session; they can change it at any time using the Playback speed menu.

What you need to do to prepare

You might want to notify users that consume Teams meeting recordings saved to OneDrive and SharePoint, update your user training, and prepare your help desk.
