On Twitter - for example - some videos play and some have a blank grey screen and the message 'this media can not be played'. Not sure what type of video can not be played. How can I identify the video type and how do I get it to play.

Using Windows 8.1 or Windows 7 by chance?
https://forums.opera.com/topic/31745/some-media-on-twitter-do-not-work is the reason I ask about Win 8.1. https://forums.opera.com/topic/36864/opera-65-0-3467-48-and-mp4-h-264-5 is why I ask about 7.

After trying to play the video, goto the URL
opera://media-internalsin a new tab. On that page, expand the section for the player in question. In all the details, it'll give you the type of video, the type of audio and the errors that happened. -

NO - Windows 10
Is it an "N" edition of Windows 10? If so, you'll need https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/mediafeaturepack to play some videos in Opera.
Also, if there's an issue with your GPU and or GPU driver, you might need to goto the URL
opera://settings/system, disable hardware acceleration and restart.Next time it happens though, post the URL to the Twitter post here.
