Because of the once again not working videos in Opera Stable (Opera devs shame on you for not supporting the Linux versions), following information for this version:

Try the Chromium package from the Linux Mint upstream.
http://packages.linuxmint.com/list.php?release=wilma#upstream

chromium_121.0.6167.160~linuxmint1+virginia_amd64.deb

unpack this and copy the libffmpeg.so
from /chromium/usr/lib/chromium/libffmpeg.so
to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra

then restart Opera Stable, this works perfektly from me (Debian/sid).

I found this Info on https://pkgs.org/download/chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra

Is there any way to disable this annoying search bar animation? It was not in version 106

@tastodd It's annoying and buggy also. Reported multiple times but without much success. Looks a bit better in Developer but still buggy.
So I just disabled the search box and forgot.

@andrew84 Opera, of course, does not quickly respond to the wishes of users, but maybe they will still listen. Moreover, this blinking does not add any visual beauty or any functionality.

Now we have a super blurry icon:

How about using this sharp icon from the side panel?

@vfbfan the icon is 'dancing' here every time I expand or collapse the extensions island.

As for the the hyped tabs islands, it's still buggy (despite of being reported in developer thread) and the whole tabstrip is sliding away and overlaps the window's buttons after expanding tab island if there are enough tabs opened. The issue will repeat until tabs will restore their default width.

*Strange that nobody more complains, it's obvious and easy to notice bug if using the 'islands'. Or it means that almost nobody uses the feature? I won't be surprised because without the ability to name, select custom color and pinning it's pretty useless, in my opinion.

@andrew84 Yep, I already noticed that bug, too. I was just to lazy to report it.

@alexs Hi,

i dont recommend posting this kind of solutions because this bug is responsibility of Opera team.

By posting this kind answer, they will never fix this problem as they should.

I have the same problem even the snap version of Opera which you have a another snap package that take care of codecs for chromium base browser, which was updated 2th of feb e now even with this videos are broken.

The Opera developers do not care about the Linux versions of Opera.
I have already pointed out several times (also via bug reports) that there are several errors in Opera (Linux). It will never be fixed.

• Lack of video support due to severely cropped version of libffmpeg.so (Vivaldi fetches the latest from Chromium at startup)
• No saving of window size and position after restart (only Opera).
• Opera does not use the language of the operating system for the user interface. The GUI is only in English.
  I have to start Opera with opera %U --window-size=xxxx,xxx --window-position=xxx,xxx --lang=de

The new bug with the links on speeddial opening very slow is super annoying.

New tab switch looks amazing, perhaps it'd be cool to display the same image I have as background? or let me choose something? just saying.

Doesn't appear when hovering over a tab----Windows 10

@korol78 If the tab is open in the background, then yes, it is not displayed in the preview. But if you open this tab first so that it loads, then it will be displayed in the preview

yes, I know, but before it was always displayed ---why won’t they return it—won’t they fix it?

It's time to change to another brower …

Mouse-over effect for search, minimise and maximise does not work.
Only close button looks ok.

And countless other things that have been reported countless times have been broken since Opera One. Please fix the things that don't work before you implement new things.

And the browser crashes as often as an alpha version.

@vfbfan: I didn't encounter a crash ever.
Maybe fix your PC instead.

@mathias87 every changelog contains crash fixes.

@andrew84 I know, why do you tell me?

@mathias87 because there are crashes indeed in browser, and not in PC.
