Thank you for that, @leocg ... that was somewhat helpful -- I don't fully follow that explanation, honestly, nor does it explain why other browsers such as Brave and Vivaldi do not have this issue with libffmpeg.so ... onward, Opera!

@treego Either they delay their releases to avoid the mismatch between Opera's Chromium version and the library's Chromium version or they don't face the same limitations, I would guess.
They don't delay at all their releases ... why wouldn't they face the same limitations as Opera?

@treego Different countries, maybe?
Opera needs to explain that, then.

@treego And how do you know that they don't delay the releases?
Brave is very up to date on Chromium releases ... I download Brave updates myself ... Vivaldi is nearly the same story. Their Chromium versions are very current as compared to Google Chrome.

@treego Maybe it's because of that.

No update available yet for Chromebook/Linux ... I am not upset ... I am patient.
I was able to update to Opera 80 this morning now. Thank you, Opera!
As usual, I had to update the libffmpeg.so file ... see here to get the current libffmpeg.so file for your Opera 80 on Linux.
I agree. how long will take to fix the html5 video issue in linux like debian base OS (like mint, pop, ubuntu) and fedora.
I read that is a legal problem, but saying that do not solve the problem.
So why when install in Ubuntu via snap i do not have the problem ?
I currently using as my daily os manjaro because of this problem.
Opera team should see how manjaro solve this.This problem, like other comments said, dont exist in Brave for example.
When i install brave via deb file, after that i see i dont have html5 video working too, but i only need to install ffmpeg package and then the video will work fine, because brave in some way, find the path to ffmpeg correctly, where Opera will not for some reason.
To me exist this ways to solve this:
the brave way, by finding the correct path to ffmpeg lib file
the manjaro way, that ask to install the lib ffmpeg and copy the file at same time of installation
or start to use open h264 like Firefox.
So to me no excuse to take so long to p solve it
So please, Opera team, Solve this. because Opera is a great Browser and more Linux users will install it.
thanks

@jedi-am On snap the codecs are provided by Canonical.
Hi, in some way you are wrong,
Because even you install opera via snap, you still do not work until you install a snap package via terminal or software store, that is call chromium-ffmpeg,
.But only works if your opera is a snap app, if you install opera via deb file and you have this snap "file" will not be enough because, again opera will not search in snap folder too.
And i try, like i said, with Brave browser works by installing ffmpeg package via terminal or via this snap package, either way brave will find the codecs.

@jedi-am It's not a matter of codecs being found or not, but if they are for the correct Chromium version.
Yes, it is. Because the system will update ffmpeg version.
If you install ffmpeg ( deb file) not chromium-ffmpeg ( snap) that will not even matter.

As older blog and forum postings about the new Music Player in the sidebar are all locked by now, I'm adding my comment here. On an old forum thread I saw Gaana mentioned as an available streaming site, so I guess the added providers depend on the user location, as I (being in Germany) have these six sites in the player: Apple Music, Deezer, SoundCloud, Spotify, Tidal, YouTube Music.
Only two of them (Spotify and Deezer) can scrobble my listening to my Last.fm profile, as they have independent methods to enable this via web API connection to Last.fm. It would be great if Opera could implement an internal scrobbling option for the other four sites as well.
The Last.fm API is free to use, and implementing scrobbling is not complicated, it only reads the artist, album and track info from the currently playing song and sends it to Last.fm. -
