As I said above, its an mp4 video which opera's libffmpeg does not support. If you are on a distro that packages chromiumffmpeg codecs, eg ubuntu, install that and it will play. If not, use another browser.

For the middle click scroll thing.
Chromium based browsers on linux have it disabled because middle click in linux = paste. If you want to use it for scrolling, install this extension

And this one in order to be able to download from chrome's store

@jimunderscorep Must've screwed up my setup somehow. It works exactly as it should on a fresh Ubuntu.

@ici-o It's very strange. I have no this bug in Windows. I use 32 and 64 bit versions of Opera on different computers. There are no such security messages. Opera is the last stable build.

It seems the videos are all on html5 there, so, instead of mentioning opera's poor html5 support, please check if rhel packages chromium ffmpeg codecs and if it does, install the relevant packages.

If you use kali as stock, that means with only the root user available, it's because opera can not be run as root
# opera [1113/071120.729838:ERROR:zygote_host_impl_linux.cc(88)] Running as root without --no-sandbox is not supported. See https://crbug.com/638180.

Hi @l33t4opera Using --show-opera-menu has worked for me 🙂 Thanks! I've updated my opera.desktop with the new param. I guess us ElementaryOS users just have to hope that there's a permanent fix in v50

I still have the same problem with the latest version of Opera and Elementary OS. Although I can say that Opera looks pretty damn good on Ubuntu 17.10. But if anyone finds a way to disable the title bar please let me know.

If you are on ubuntu, or an ubuntu based distro, install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg and/or chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra to make opera's support a little better. Plus, facebook and similar sites will switch to html5 playback too.

It points to version 45 as the post says and I thought it wasn't difficult to find other versions from there.
