Hi I have the latest version 86.0.4363.23, on Ubuntu (Linux) 18.04, and until yesterday I had the latest version of 85, everything was fine. But now except for Youtube, I can't play any video from any website. Whether news, entertainment etc.... Moreover, I usually watch Netflix from the browser and I get the Widevine Content Decryption Module error:
Widevine Content Decryption Module - Version: 4.10.2449.0
Status - Components not up to date
Check for updatesAnd this is the result it gives. The thing is that I refresh the page and it says that the components are up to date, but I hit it again and it says that they are not.
Never in all that I've been using opera, which is since versions 30 and something, I had never happened. And no matter how I install it, in ubuntu (either snap or deb). It doesn't fix or work.
It is something desperate, that every time there is an update, in one of them, always happens this problem of videos in Ubuntu (at least in my case).
This is like having a browser in beta or test version, but it doesn't work. And I deleted cokies, I went to browse without add-ons and also in private mode... and there is no way.
You can't do anything that has to do with video...
Best regards
Postadata:
Every how many days an update comes out, because the 86.0.4363.17 was perfect, but this .23 final, this to be polished... at least in linux (ubuntu 18.04 or 20.04)
Any solution?

@albano23 The script at https://github.com/Ld-Hagen/fix-opera-linux-ffmpeg-widevine should fix things. If that fails, see this page.

Currency conversion:
When entering 100 USD EUR in address line and pressing enter, the browser does not return search result in Google.
It copies result to clipboard. This is unwanted behavior.
If user enters a search in URL field, it should forward as a normal search and open result page.

The size of the text in the address bar has become very small and unreadable, please return it as it was

Same thing with units and time zones. Try 40000 feet and 22:00 EST.
No good. Browser must open page with search result.

@vegelund Okay, but the result is already there, you don't even need to go to the results page.
That is not my point. I am suggesting what is normal Chromium browser behavior and what a user expects:
The search query should upon pressing Enter deliver the search result page.A Google search result page delivers way more information and context than the limited drop-down field answer.

When I enter a search phrase (ctrl+f) in a tab, and want to search for the same phrase in another new tab, the search filed is empty. So, I have to retype the same word again.
Opera does not remember the search phrase across tabs. -

It would be nice if Snapshot had other options to save a file besides .png - ie .jpg etc

On currency conversion no source is provided.
Normally these calculations are done with the mid-market rate. Commonly used by apps such as XE.com
Nor is any info given on update intervals of currency rates and Opera numbers always differ from the default Google search rate given on top of result page. That means Opera is using a different rate than Google.
The result preview in dropdown is a great feature. So is the mark text on page for conversions. I often use these for quick estimates.
But when enter is pressed on a text search, the browser must forward to what the user has requested: A result page from the default search engine.

@vegelund The source is mainly the European Central Bank.

Thanks, that explains where the currency rates are coming from.
