      Hi all. I apologise if this is perhaps an old subject that might have been discussed to death.

      Opera is my favourite mobile browser because of speed dial and the rotational tab system. There's just one issue that lets it down for me.

      With embedded videos on just vBulletin boards, I always get 'can't load plugin'.

      Is there any solution for this? Thanks.

          I've seen your post but I can't really help you.

          The site you're visiting would have to change to give you the embedded HTML5 video. They're trying to send you the Flash Player version which is not supported on Android anymore.

            Hi rafaelluik,

            Here is an example of an embedded video on a vbulletin board.

            You should see 'can't load plugin' in your android opera browser. Then paste the same link into chrome or another browser and you'll see the video is displayed with no issue at all.

            That is the problem that opera needs to address since other browsers have no such problem.

                They load as thumbnail + YouTube direct app protocol links for me. E.g. "vnd.youtube:7iyd-gh2rhM"
