You are right. I just switched to arc-darker, a theme that is entirely dark and the problem of your images appears here as well.

Besides, I had to replace libffmpeg.so becuase youtube said, my Opera didn't support h.264, so I downloaded opera-ffmpeg-codecs-58.0.3029.81-1-x8664.pkg.tar.xz from repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x8664/... and now everything is all right!

Thank you so much for pointing that out! I am finally able to play h.264 videos with opera on my fedora machine!

If netflix requires widevine (package chromium-widevine) and not the usual chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-* ones, you are out of luck since ubuntu does not package chromium-widevine at all.

Since it is based on ubuntu, the solution (= installing chromium-codecs-ffmpeg and chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extras) applies to that one too.

Ok ultravio1et,
I try that before installing opera-stable and opera-stable-libffmpeg from russian-fedora repos, and that don't work for me.

But now, all work fine with packages opera-stable and opera-stable-libffmpeg.

I have same issue with fedora, and solve problem with the fedora-russian repo : see this thread : https://forums.opera.com/topic/20914/opera-45-don-t-show-daylimotion-video/5

I don't know if it's possible, but if you download the source package and rebuild for your distro, may-be that work...

Well, I have the same issue on opera stable. It seems that the light and dark built in themes only change the address bar and the tab bar and nothing more. Even the recently closed tabs menu uses the light theme!

Obviously, it is not related to the dark gtk theme bug. This was solved by forcing opera to use some gtk theme they have made (light grey menus, darker grey selected entries and black letters).

You can not do what you ask because, in general, you can not set a custom search engine as the default and thus have it appear on spped dial.

However, you can add youtube's search as a custom search engine. Right click on youtube's search field > create search engine > fill the details there > done.
