      Updating to the new version seems to change nothing 😞 I'm running in the same problems as I did in the older version. By the way I'm using Windows 10. Do you have any other ideas or should I just hope that it'll be fixed anytime soon?

          @oelmensch I found the solution there! I enable -Override software rendering list- and disable -Use surface layers in Video Pop-out-

          it seems works fine on youtube and other streaming sites!

            @molenin Volume change is already available in Opera developer 68, so it's just a matter of time for it to reach stable channel.

              @hrfast The volume control isn't a main problem. It's ugly overall copared with original pop-out. I don't like shadow upon mouse over, I want to see fullscreen and small screen at the same time...

                @aibenq Just remember that it may stop working at any time.

                  @oelmensch It doesn't work.
                  I made a try in the Opera Developer: 69.0.3630.0.

                  OldStyle Pop-Out.
                  opera:flags#video-pop-out-surface-layers: Disable
                  Black pop-out window, video is in the main window.

                  New style shit.
                  opera:flags#video-pop-out-surface-layers: Enable
                  Black main window, video is in the pop-out window.

                  Do nothing at all:
                  --disable-gpu-compositing
                  --disable-direct-composition-layers
                  --disable-direct-composition

                    but am confused and i do not mean to despute what ya said -

                    ya said this that ya - (disabled -Use surface layers in Video Pop-out)
                    What version of opera did ya disabled this flag in.. *just ask'n..

                    the reason i ask is i think version 66.0.3515.115 was last version for the old style pip was working..

                    if ya disable that flag in the newer version of opera the (Video Pop-out)
                    will be black and non work 'n except for sound perhaps..

                    if ya set the flag @ (default or Enabled) ya get the new (Video Pop-out)..

                    if ya got the old style PIP work 'n in the latest opera version do tell and show how.. *thankyou in advance..

                      Same Problem without solution... the new Pop-Out Style is really shit...

                      I don't understand why they deleted the old style and didn't make it freely selectable...

                      Is there a way to deactivate the autoupdate so that I can use a older version with the old style where it still works properly?

                        @Sart It was already explained why the change had to be made. Regarding autoupdate, check the FAQ.

                          Why was it removed? I can't find an answer here????

                          Also i dont understand why, it is not at least improved that the position and size are saved in the popup with the new style...

                          And I have not found any instructions to disable the auto update function, only rename opera_autoupdate.exe, but this dont work

                              @Sart Renaming the autoupdater should work but you need to do it before the autoupdate happens. So basically:

                              • Downlaod the offline installer of an old version
                              • Turn off your internet connection
                              • Run the installer
                              • Rename the opera_autoupdate.exe in the related sub-folder in Opera's installation directory
                              • Turn on your internet connection
