@fherman said in Dependency problems on Linux Mint:
However, even now, Opera will still not work with things like Twitch and a few other stream content formats. I still get : This video is either unavailable or not supported in this browser. (Error #4000
Hopefully this post will help with that. Opera can't do anything about it for legal reasons.

but there's no problem with every other browser
have you got a link to Opera's explanation about the legal reasons

@leocg thanks for that
weird that Vivaldi (a smaller company) on Linux Mint works as expected -

@u1travio1et Vivaldi is in the same boat as Opera. Vivaldi just takes the chance and includes a script that automatically fetches libffmpeg.so.

I've been using Opera as a snap package with Linux Mint for several versions and it seems to work well.

@teddkon Yes, I tried that. I think I reported that. The problem I had was, for whatever reason, the snap installation was unable to import/use the bookmarks, passwords, etc, (of which I had a lot) from the .deb installation, so it was worthless for me. Yes it did solve some of the codec issues.
I have abandoned Opera and moved back to FireFox which has greatly improved since I use it a few years back. Plus I don't have to concern myself that Opera is now essentially owned by the ChiComs and all the dirty tricks these folks play in their cyber warfare.
