Since yesterday I can't see the videos on Twitter.
I get the message: The content cannot be reproduced.
I can see all YT videos.
I also tried other browsers and they work fine, I can see the videos on Twitter.
Thanks in advance for the answers -

I have the same problem. I think it is the ffmpeg problem again.
Please have a look at this page: https://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.htmlOnly the H.264/MP4 video should not play.
We have to figure out witch version of ffmpeg we need this time and how to install it. If someone found a working solution for debian based systems please let me now...
To the opera devs: Please fix this problem once and for all

H.264/MP4 problem in Opera 49.0.2725.5
Ok, I had some time to play around. On Debian (amd64) based systems (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, ect) you need to uninstall
chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra with the command:
sudo apt-get remove chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extraYou can uses this older version as replacement:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/amd64/chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra/61.0.3163.100-0ubuntu0.16.04.1306or as direct download:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/338867652/chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_61.0.3163.100-0ubuntu0.16.04.1306_amd64.debdownload the file and use:
sudo dpkg --install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_61.0.3163.100-0ubuntu0.16.04.1306_amd64.deb
to install it, or double click on the file. Afterwards completely restart Opera.If you want to prevent further updates of this package use this command (not recommended):
sudo apt-mark hold chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra -
