@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.
