Powerpoint 365 Keeps uploading to Classic Stream

Just quick question but we have disabled uploading for Stream Classic so no manually videos can be uploaded - that's great and it redirects to Stream SharePoint as intended BUT...

PowerPoint 365 currently uploads to both Stream Classics and Stream Sharepoint and only emails the user about their videos on Classic. Any idea if there is a fix or something in the pipeline that will help move people across before we use the migration tool and disable classic altogether later in the year?

This is to stop content being duplicated and speeding up the migration process in future so we can stop people linking to the classic content.

Thanks in advance!

    Hi @Chris Thompson ,

    This should be a short term issue, No new videos can be uploaded to Stream (Classic) unless admin takes action to delay this change. This can be delayed until August 15, 2023. This question of yours should be no later than August 15, 2023 and it will disappear automatically.

    Hi @Chris Thompson ,

    It seems that you have disabled uploading for Stream Classic but PowerPoint 365 is still uploading to both Stream Classic and Stream SharePoint, and only email notifications are being sent for videos on Classic. Microsoft Stream Classic is being retired, and Stream (on SharePoint) is replacing it. You should start using the new Stream (on SharePoint) by uploading your videos to SharePoint, Teams, Yammer, or OneDrive.

    Regarding the current issue, you can try to troubleshoot by reviewing the settings in PowerPoint 365. Ensure that you have selected the correct upload destination for your video and that automatic uploads are disabled.

    Please note that Microsoft is migrating videos from Stream Classic to Stream (on SharePoint) in a phased approach. You can check the migration schedule and learn more about the migration process in the Microsoft documentation.
