        This fix helped me, but what's the benefit of Hardware-accelerated video decode if lagging like that?
        And it will effect on another websites like Vimeo if i kept it disabled?

        Glad to hear it helped you.
        It's a bug. Period. Dunno if it is a Chromium issue or an Opera issue. It was introduced in O52 and I have the same problem.
        I'm using an Intel i5-7300HQ and an Intel HD630, so old hardware isn't the problem here.
        This fix affects all videos ofc, it's not YT specific.

            @nvmjustagirl He already said that the problem was fixed by deactivating hardware-accelerated video decode. It has nothing to do with AV or firewalls.

              i'm sure he wants to keep Hardware-accelerated video decode... maybe he doesn't like a load on his GPU !
              but i guess not you since ya got same problem... just because you gave up doesn't mean he will.. lol

                @nvmjustagirl Ha ha :face_with_stuck-out_tongue: I already discussed this topic with one of the devs. Trust me, the devs need to fix it, nothing the user can do here. With O51 everything is fine. And I can see several complaints regarding HWA issues in the desktop blog, so more than two people are affected. O52 is just buggy as hell.

                          @nvmjustagirl It has nothing to do with drivers, my sweetheart. 😘
                          I am using an Intel HD 630 with latest driver installed for HWA, i.e. no NVIDIA. That means it can't be a driver issue, because aii-s uses a different card.

                            I want to keep it enabled if it will help decode the video better and gives more benfits.
                            but issue cause by hardware-accelerated video decode but they need to fix it so i can enable it again in future.

                                when opera does sum new updates i would try portable one 1st ! lol

                                ya could Test a portable installation, but in another
                                directory, to test it as a clean install and check if
                                the problems still happens.. maybe then ya could re-enable Hardware Acceleration..

                                    @aii-s Don't know if this will help at all but I had a game that continually froze as well and the cure was that I used CCleaner to clear internet cache and now all is fine. This may work with your problem
