I understand that they can't provide the codecs themselves, including downloading it from a third party through a script.

@yogimanuk Agree ... It is a weird situation, although I can live with it. I created my own script that I always run after an Opera update

@benvantende Yes I too have a script that copies the files, my problem is I never know what codec version to download and where from.

@styen Only this method worked for me. Thank you so much.

I'll be exporting my bookmarks and leaving Opera. Can't believe they ship a version that after update doesnt even start... a common user wouldn't even know whats is wrong... Stupid, very stupid.

@jferreira I agree, but I'm not leaving. Unfortunately for the users on my distro of choice, Opera will be held back on 79 until a fix is implemented and 80 truly is stable and not so much of a dev/beta release.

After updating opera I receive this error:
opera: symbol lookup error: opera: undefined symbol: av_stream_get_first_dts
then i just reinstalled opera-ffmpeg-codecs in Software Manager and it worked.
My system is manjaro KDE
