This article is contributed. See the original author and article here.

Microsoft Stream (Classic) now includes new features that deliver better video experiences across all of Microsoft 365.

 

Fast Embed

The Microsoft Stream team has replaced our old embed player with an improved version called Fast Embed. This means users will experience faster-loading times for all Stream videos embedded across Microsoft 365 applications.
