      Make sure that hardware acceleration is enabled

        @leocg Thank You! That actually worked!
        The option I enabled is called:
        "Use graphics acceleration when available"
        and I searched for it in the search box in Opera's settings then enabled it and restarted the browser.

          Having the same issue since a few builds back, unfortunately for me the graphics acceleration option is not working. It was already enabled anyway.

          Hoping that in the next build they fix it.

            After the update instead of better it's worse. For me also since yesterday picture in picture on youtube doesn't work, I wanted to listen to music as usual and opera failed...

              @leocg said in Youtube mini pop-out not working:

              Enabled. But this does not solve the problem.

                @ds2902 So even with hardware acceleration turned on,you can't see the video pop-out?

                  Even with hardware acceleration the picture-in picture feature is not working, like for a few builds now.
                  And not to mention the add blocker which is practically non-existent, but this is another subject for another time. I have to use Brave to watch Youtube.

                  I don't know what happened but like since the beginning of this year, almost every update breaks something, or makes it worse. I am an Opera user since the begging of times, since you had to pay a license for it, so I still have faith that you don't rush the builds, but make them work properly.

                    @adispy what happens when you click on the video pop-out icon or change to a different tab while the video is playing (assuming that automatic video pop-out is enabled)?

                      @leocg In the corner of the screen, at the bottom right, a pop-up player window appears, but it is completely transparent, neither the controls nor the video itself are visible there. It is impossible to use this.
                      In addition, hardware acceleration does not seem to work at all. It is enabled in the browser, but the Windows task manager shows that the browser is not using the GPU.

                        @ds2902 Does opera://gpu says that hardware acceleration is being used? Check first section.

                          This is what I get in the first section.

                          Also, down bellow I get some errors. Don't know if these are relevant.

                            @adispy It seems that hardware acceleration is not working. Probably a driver or hardware issue/incompatibility.

                            Any difference if you enable opera://flags/#ignore-gpu-blocklist?

                              Looks like enabling that setting the picture-in picture starts working again, and it's also remodeled!
                              Strange, because no drivers were installed or updated, just the Windows updates which are filtered since are coming from a local WSUS server.

                              Thank you for the help, much appreciate it.

                                I have two GPUs in the system, it used to work with any, depending on the settings. After updating the browser, it doesn't work with either of the two.

                                Opera 115.0.5322.58
                                opera://gpu
                                "Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled"

                                at the same time Opera 114.0.5282.185
                                opera://gpu report "Hardware accelerated"

                                  @ds2902 Can you check in other Chromium browsers?

                                      for me the problem only occurs in regular opera. However, in opera gx, image in image on youtube works. Strange.

                                        @bakaszadi Opera GX probably doesn't have what is causing the issue on Opera One.

                                          Yeah, it finally started working today.
                                          Great 🙂

                                            Disabling graphics acceleration works, maybe you'll fix it later but thanks
