      @lando242 renamed profile folder and it created a new one. It still doesn't work though 😞

      Ack, a detail I forgot though: Only my uploads on Soundcloud will play. Everything else on Soundcloud, as well as on Tumblr, does not work. It's really weird 😕

        How is the plugins settings in Settings > Websites > Plugins?

        Which version of flash is being used?

        Which OS?

          Let's see about flash...

          Name: Shockwave Flash
          Description: Shockwave Flash 17.0 r0
          Version: 17.0.0.134
          Location: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\pepflashplayer32_17_0_0_134.dll
          Type: PPAPI (out-of-process)

          and then:

          Name: Shockwave Flash
          Description: Shockwave Flash 16.0 r0
          Version: 16,0,0,305
          Location: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32_16_0_0_305.dll
          Type: NPAPI

          OS is Windows 7

            Does disabling the npapi one helps?

            Anyway, here neither soundcloud nor tumblr seems to be using flash.

              Make sure opera://flags/#proprietary-media-types-playback is enabled.

                I first tried enabling opera://flags/#proprietary-media-types-playback; It was enabled by default, but I made sure to enable it. Didn't really do anything. Same for disabling NPAPI, I'm pretty sure I tried it at some point, so I tried again. Didn't work though

                      It works if you disable flash completely?

                            Tests in other browsers:
                            Opera: Not functional
                            Internet Explorer: Functional
                            Firefox:Functional
                            Chrome:Functional

                            As a side note, I went on a different computer with Opera on it(same version 28) and audio players di not work on there either. For those of you that it works for: what version are you using?

                              I've checked with 28 and 29.

                                @leocg What OS are you using then? I have both of those on my computer, and they don't work.

                                      This problems seems to persist to this day, as the latest build of Opera for Windows 10 seems to be unable to play track previews on http://www.bleep.com. Even the latest beta build of Opera for Android seems unable to play tracks on http://www.soundcloud.com.

                                        Please open another topic following the How to post about a problem in Opera guide.

                                        This topic is too old and bring it up now will just confuse people.
