@sodapoppy First, click on the three lines in the top right of the browser (this is directly under the "X" button to close the window). Then find the option for "Force Dark Pages" and click on "Configuration". Then under the "Disable" section, click on "Add". Then just add www.youtube.com and save and close it.

@sodapoppy Click on the "O" in the top left and go to "Update & Recovery" and check for updates. It definitely is an option, but it has a beta label on it. So maybe only recent versions or certain users have access to it.

@sodapoppy Probably using Opera GX, since this area is about Opera GX.

Heyo, thought I would pitch in just in case someone needs this further down the line.
Force Dark mode is indeed the culprit, but you can got to it's settings and add www.youtube.com in the list of exceptions and that will solve the issue. Hope someone finds this useful. :3

As you can see from the screenshots below, I do not have dark mode enabled and I still have the white overlay on all videos. Animated gifs are fine. Webm, Youtube and streaming services such as Netflix or Prime Video all have this white filter overlay.
When first installing, I did select dark mode (experimental) on. Would that have caused it?
I have tried turning all versions of dark mode off to test it. I went into "opera://flags" and changed the dark mode to "Enabled with selective inversion of non-image elements". Nothing seems to change it.Any tips?

@decker177 For YouTube, try using its own dark theme. or light if you prefer.

@decker177 Make a test standalone installation of Opera GX to a folder named "Opera Test" on your desktop. Does that Opera GX behave fine at least?

@leocg It's not just Youtube. It's all video players on Opera GX. I did try to turn on youtube dark mode and it still has the white overlay. I do not have this on any other browser, just this one.
@burnout426 I did a stand alone install and the problem still persists. I even selected a light theme off the bat. I've adjusted the gamma through windows itself and it hasn't helped. Only Opera GX is doing this. Every other browser is fine.
