HI,
Here's what I noticed.
in Opera 129.0.5823.22 YouTube cannot play long videos,
but in Opera 126.0.5750.43 everything is played back without a hitch.
Also in Firefox 135.0 no problems.
Please tell me what needs to be tweaked in Opera 129.0.5823.22 so that YouTube plays normally.
Respectfully, Serge -

What this means exactly - video stops at some point, becomes garbled, tab crashes, something else?

@sergik2017 What happens when you try to watch those videos?

The video starts playing for the first minute and a half. Then it stops and says “Something went wrong.” I think this is due to some kind of Opera extension. I'll try to turn everything off.

What does it mean "long video"? 1 hour, 10 hours?
Can you share YouTube link so we can test it?

Turn off VPN and adblocker too - they may interfere.
I have seen such kind of message occasionally, before playing, usually some refershes help. What can be cause that, I have no idea; I would blame some ad- or other blocker, but no hard facts.

@donq, YouTube changed its algorithms some time ago to counteract Ad Blockers, which is likely why YouTube may not function properly with Opera’s Ad blocker.
We are planning to introduce a new technology behind the Ad Blocker later this year to address this issue. However, I’m not able to share an exact timeline yet.
Rest assured, we will keep you informed as soon as there are updates.
