@leocg sorry, but why you say the same every time? W.10, have no problem with that (as far as i know), i can confirm on W.10, but W.7 or 8.1 (i have it on another machine) have issues with gifs, and appears on browsers.
if you have solution or advise for that, i want to know, thanks

Also, the OP didn't mentioned its OS.
Guess what?
Windows 7Every time I have an issue, this issue doesn't exist in Brave...
Do you suggest me to move to Brave?Or shall I ask to Brave Team to do an Opera like browser?

By the way, about video issues, it's ages since Opera doesn't play correctly videos from smartphones in Facebook Messenger. It works in Chrome! But no one cares...

@leocg I told you many times. The fact is Opera is based on Chromium, so, it is supposed to work like in Chrome...

I'm also on Win 8.1 and I have various results in different browsers (Chrome, FireFox, Vivaldi, Edge Canary on chromium).
With hardware acceleration ON it does work nowhere (small difference is in FireFox where the black screen is appearing when I click 'play' button, in other browsers no response)
With hardware acceleration OFF it plays correctly only in Chrome. It also plays in Edge, but with freezes (not smooth). In FireFox and Vivaldi is the same result as with acceleration off. -

@andrew84 you have Edge on W.8.1, if yes, how?
same here, tried hardware acceleration (HA) off, on all browsers i have (opera, firefox, and recently brave), but no luck, only chrome and brave with OFF HA plays.
can you confirm if you want? on this (emojis) page, it shows all the emojis, or some is squares? -

I mean the MS Edge that is based on Chromium engine (Stable version is not available yet as far as I know, but Beta, Dev, Canary is available. I have Canary installed). I don't mean Edge that comes with Win 10.

I made a mistake in my post in last sentence. I wanted to say 'In FireFox and Vivaldi is the same result as with acceleration on'. There was no possibility to edit the post to fix it.
So, with HA on it doesn't play in all my browsers, with HA off it plays fine in Chrome only. In Edge it also plays, but freezing.@panosv said in Some media on Twitter do not work:
emojis
Only in FireFox I can see all the emoji.
In all other browsers I see that some (many of them actually) are squares (doesn't matter if HA is on or off) -

This is a direct link to video:
https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1115643600719818757/pu/vid/640x352/BEEPEYSFlB9xNTDZ.mp4Opera uses the Windows Media Foundation (as opposed to ffmpeg like Chrome) to play h.264 videos like this. For it to work in Opera, it needs to work in Windows Media Player first and be supported by WMF (a DirectShow plug-in on Windows won't do it). Then it should work.
If you have an "N" version of Windows 8, you might need https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2929699/media-feature-pack-for-windows-8-1-n-and-windows-8-1-kn-editions-april.
However, I don't know Opera's status of support for Windows 8.1 and WMF. Maybe it only works for Win7 and Win10.
Test to see if the video works in Windows Media Player first.
You could also test in Vivaldi for another comparison. You just can't compare with Chrome or Chromium built with "all codecs".
thanks!
