@yanta I guess it's not the first nor the last site to create issues with beta and/or developer builds.

The user agents are different, that may explain.

@andrew84 I also pop-up video freezes, but not always, but about 4 times out of 10 attempts when trying to unfasten the video!

Maybe ARTE uses a User-Agent strings whitelist, on which only the standard versions of web browsers are listed. And anything being not whitelisted will be rejected. So nothing specific against Opera Developer. I got it. Thank you.

@xantares said in Opera 66.0.3487.0 developer update:

@yanta: Same here. But works when spoofing User-Agent as ”Firefox 46“ (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0), for instance.

Off-topic:

A valid user agent string for the current Firefox 70 is for example Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:70.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/70.0

Saying that because Firefox 46 was released in April 2016 and some website operators block older web browsers.

@temkem I can't make it work here (on Win8), I tried 10 times and 10 times I see a stop frame.
Additionally 'next video' button doesn't work on popup and 'mute' icon's state (visual) is not synchronized with the main window.

Ordered by Personal Priority (I will keep posting this till each and every one of these are fixed)

1. Video Pop out is broken, the video no longer plays properly when popped out. It just becomes static while the audio continues to play. Also improve the pop-out feature by auto popping out the video if you switch tabs. As well as add the ability change speeds, see close captions and change video quality in the pop-out window.
2. Remove restrictions on default search engines.
3. Fix your goddamn quick access pane!
4. Make instant search use user's default search engine. Google sucks.
5. Unify Sidebar with the defunct sidepanel and actually give it a dedicated purpose. No double icons for download, and settings. Be Consistent by consistent i mean put easy setup there as well.
6. Actually try to finalize your terrible Reborn UI. This is going so slow you make MS with Windows 10's inconsistency look good!
7. Enhance your adblocker to block better, there are a few sites where ads come through, while with other adblockers with exact same filters they don't

@andrew84 They need to add support for chromium extensions there as well. Not just the defunct extensions on Opera Extension store.

@artexjay Chrome store has to support Opera too.

"DNA-80584 Closing active tab – the last active tab should be shown" works worse than before:
1.) Open a new tab.
2.) Google for a word (using the address bar), watch the result.
3.) Google for another word (using the address bar), watch the result.
4.) Close the tab.
5.) You'll find yourself not in the last active tab, but in the tab on the far right.

@beboss You need to ask in a Google forum as it doesn't seem to be something from Opera.
By the way, don't remember have seen such message here.

@leocg apff as I said it's not only google, so makes no sense to ask every website what the hell is this, right? And it seemed to be a mac thing:
Accessibility -> Shortcuts -> Show accessibility controls.

New build - Opera developer 66.0.3494.0 ;-)
The change log, and the announcement.

I have just used Opera developer 66.0.3494.0 x64 on Win10 x64 to search Opera's Extensions catalog for uBlock Origin.

Again two extensions with the same name and the same function (ad blocker), but by different developers were found.

With Opera Developer I can visit the corresponding website for the first hit:



With Opera GX LVL 1 (core: 63.0.3368.57388) I see this, at the same time:




I don't understand, neither the existence of two extensions with the same name, nor the different reaction of the web browsers to the web page call.
