@bfox272: What is that issue? YouTube and PrimeVideo work fine here, but I'm not that much into watching video in my daily browsing.
What OS are you on?

@bfox272: Also did you try installing the last O70 build and then updating to the last 71? make sure no traces of 148 remain.
And don't use autoupdate either, go for the FTP servers and update manually.

@hectormaciasa1979 The issue is when viewing a video, whether YouTube, Netflix or other video sites, clicking the fullscreen button on vid player does not remove the bookmarks bar, address bar or tab bar. I have found that "Hide bookmarks bar" from View menu or Shift-cmd-B takes it to proper fullscreen. When exiting fullscreen from the player or esc key, need to "Show Bookmarks bar" to go back to normal.
I'm on MacOS 14.6, and have seen other reports of this issue on MacOS 15.6. There are also reports of a similar issue on the Windows forum.

@hectormaciasa1979 No I haven't tried this. If I revert to v. 70 I'll stay there until I know the bug has been fixed. The workaround using Shift-cmd-B works for now, but it's annoying.

so.... the setting for "search in tabs" is definitely gone. opera://flags/#search-in-open-tabs
nice work, I'm glad that I have useless button for my 3 tabs.
the previous button was much more useful to me. it's a mistake to give it away. why is it such a problem to give the user a choice? if you continue like this, it's probably time to look for a new browser ....

@miq: 71 beta has display problems on my Mint 20 with the recommended NVIDIA driver. I tried disabling hardware acceleration in Opera's settings, and lost right-click dialogs. So, if you currently have hardware acceleration disabled, that may be the problem, (though both options should work as expected, of course).

@bfox272: I don't use the bookmarks bar, so I just enabled it to see and it didn't happen on latest Win10 Insider build 20H2 19042.541 with all updates. So maybe it's related to Mac, those windows users you mention probably did use previous build of Opera, this browser has this problem that it won't delete installed folders of previous versions for some reason, I always delete them manually, reported it for years and never got an official answer from the staff.
You should try the method I gave you, you have nothing to lose. But I'm not familiar with the location of those files in Mac so I can't provide much more help than this.

Please acknowledge the fullscreen video bug that is affecting MacOS 10.15.6 users in all versions of Opera 71.

@hectormaciasa1979: It's saying I have to restart to update to 71 even when I deleted autoupdate.exe in Windows Explorer.
Annoying!!!
