Q: no video in my Photo Stream

I'm using Yosemite on MacBook Pro and latest IOS 9.x on iPhone 5s, I made both video and photos with iPhone but only pictures have been migrated to My Photo Stream so Yosemite can see only these ones. Did you have suggestions?

It's necessary to upgrade to El Capitan?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

Try syncing Photos to iCloud on the computer and the iPhone.

I don't want to synchronise all photos to iCloud because I have not enough space but I'd like to keep Photo stream because it store last 30 days synchronized to iCloud

Videos are not supported in My Photo Stream. You need to connect the iPhone to the Mac with its USB cable in order to get them onto your Mac.

Shared Albums support videos.

Ok I didn't remember it. Thanks for the document reference.
If I wanted to synchronize automatically all video and not pictures, linking iPhone by usb port, to my Photos library on MacBook... does it exist way to make it?

Yes. Use the USB cord that came with the iPhone. With the iPhone connected Photos should open automatically . Click on your iPhone in the sidebar and its photos will be displayed at the right:
where you can import all or just selected photos:
