      Any example?

      Are your video card drivers up to date? What are your video card?

      Does opera://gpu/ show any error message? What about opera://media-internals/ ?

          Stone the picture in a public storage site and post the link here.

          However I was referring more to a example link to a video with the problem.

                No problems here on a Intel HD4600.

                Does opera://media-internals/ shows anything unusual when playing that video?

                  Well look here.

                  http://imgur.com/a/gj0wz

                  archangel000, do I have to manually install h264 codec? I would have thought the system would come with it.

                  leocg, do I run the opera://media-internals/ line command in a separate tab while playing the video in a different one?

                          Now click on the entry related to the video you are playing and check for error messages or something like that.

                              It seems OK.

                              What about opera:/gpu? Does it shows any error message?

                              How the video behaves on Chrome or other Chromium based browser?

                                There might be a problem, starting with line 23.

                                Video works flawlessly in Chrome and Vivaldi.

                                By the way, the problem isn't limited to just this video. Any video from any website seems to display the green overlay.

                                  The problem may be in lines 182 and 183.

                                  What happens if you disable hardware acceleration?

                                    That fixed the problem. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
