Just like we can hide the pop-out button when we disable that option, imo it would make sense the Lucid Mode mouseover-button to be hidden when we disable it in Settings.

Maybe add the ability to enable/disable Lucid Mode in the gear icon in the video pop out?
My proposals for changes in Opera (Google Document).

I think it'd be enough to have only the icon (stars) on video instead of the big button with text.

@andrew84: I agree. Just as the video pop out button only has a graphic, so should it be a new function button.

Cool and with all the other Chromium browsers on 108 and you stuck on 107.0.5304.122. Are you going to release a security fix for CVE-2022-4262, you know the zero day from 12 DAYS AGO!??
P.S. There were 8 more fixes in 108.0.5359.124 released yesterday. I also wonder how many of those affect you:

I hope that among these upgrades we will have:
_multiple picture-in-picture;
_access to speed-dial through the enhanced address bar.
Thanks. -

@antonio1678: right... I think I'll start using Opera only for crap, and for serious things Brave - there chromium updates come out almost on the same day as in Google Chrome

vladaart last edited byI expected to see this feature much earlier in Opera, but now that it's finally here, I have to admit that I don't like it at all. Firefox did a much better job, mostly because that effect is quite well measured and basically properly implemented. Not only that the images are properly sharpened there, but I have the impression that Firefox also adds a small grain from above as a compensation for JPEG compression, which is why the thumbnails look really great. However, in Opera with this feature activated, the images and thumbnails on the pages looks terrible on my 2k monitor, so I won't be using it until they fix this.

@vladaart I've used Firefox for quite a while parallel to Opera and Vivaldi. But I wasn't aware, that they have something similar to the lucid mode. At least I haven't found and used it.
I've enabled Lucid Mode now for quite a day. I didn't realized the difference that much by enabling, but after watching a handful of videos you notice the difference when disabling.
I haven't enabled it for images btw, only for video. -

@himmelssheriff When we speak about image sharpness, in Firefox this feature is integrated by default. Put side by side Opera or Vivaldi and Firefox, and let's say open some page with a lot of images and thumbnails, like per example Artstation website and you will notice the difference immediately. Opera brings now Video sharpness, which is kinda OK, but still it's not perfect. Certain video files are more compressed than others, so to use only one setup for all of them it's not probably the best solution. Someone mentioned here slider option for this feature. I agree with that, or perhaps a possible option so that we can choose between two different sharpening algorithms (with and w/o grain effect) or as a bottom line, option for 3 level of sharpness at least.
