Opera Employees

@LorenWard Thanks for trying. So you are getting this problem when you do following action?

1. Install Opera Beta freshly (version: 47.0.2249.129321)
2. Try singn in to sync from setting menu using your old opera account
3. Sign in successfull but disabled immediatly, demanding passphrase
4. Clicking on sign in ask for entering password
5. Providing correct password says "incorrect password"

Please confirm if above mentioned is happening also please confirm that the same account can login to "sync.opera.com"

Regards
Opera

Have you tried disabling your installed extensions?

@LorenWard "Opera Browser Beta" is a separate app and this issue was reported by a beta user. If you are using "Opera Browser: Fast and Secure" then you have to wait a little more to get update.
Please refer screenshot for both apps

@avs-buldos Добрый день! А ссылку на приложение в магазине Opera можно?

@kzrozdov У Приватного Режима отдельный стиль, поэтому на данный момент - никак

@operasilver40 Запуск через launcher на taskbar? Подтвердить на Win10 x64 не могу

Do you only have this problem on sites from Google and Microsoft - does it work on other sites? Or is the problem for example that all https sites don't work? If you go to https://www.nytimes.com , does it work?

The only thing I can think of is that you have some other software installed on your system that is breaking these connections. Do you have a third-party firewall installed, or some other security software? Do you use another VPN in the system? Do you use a proxy?

@fjuk We don't 'choose' to limit this functionality. Unfortunately there are complicated legal restrictions around distributing support for H264 video decoding, and it comes down to 'we can't give you this functionality ourselves'.

Therefore we rely on others to give it to you. On Windows and Mac, it's the operating system that provides libraries that do H264 decoding, and Opera uses those. On Linux it's a bit more complicated, but it comes down to 'we use what Chromium uses except we can't give it to you ourselves'.

Unfortunately this means that now and then, when the library Chromium uses changes, Opera needs a certain minimum version of the library to be able to work with it. The rule of thumb is that Opera can always use a library if it's the same version as the Chromium version Opera is based on (check opera://about to see which Chromium it's based on), and sometimes older versions, depending on when Chromium last changed the library. Since the library changed in Chromium 67 / Opera 54, we currently can't use older ones.

While we are waiting for the stable package to be updated in Ubuntu's repositories, if you want a more official, Ubuntu-supplied up-to-date version of the codecs package, there's a package available for Cosmic Beaver which is already at Chromium 67. You can find it here: https://packages.ubuntu.com/cosmic/chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra .
