      Last few days, I have an issue with unable to play youtube videos. As you can see on the video, first time I open Opera, and Youtube, it says that it blocked it. After I choose unblock, nothing happens. Funny thing is that if I try to play some embedded youtube video on some other site, it plays normal.

                Which version of Opera? Opera Blink (Opera 15+) doesn't have such a block feature.

                  This is addition to standard youtube link. For some reason, if I post a regular link, it wont shows here.

                    Just take the whole link and put it between these two characters: <>, for example:

                    <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD5bFCDfySc>
                    

                    Remember to have http:// or https:// in the beginning of the link.

                        The explanation wasn't a solution for your problem but a information on how to post YouTube links in this forum as it does support the [YouTube] tag.

                        People need to watch the video you made to try to understand your issue and be able to try to help you.

                          I think I found root of a problem, but still don't have a solution. Since I tried to play youtube videos on Firefox too, just to check how it acts, I've found that Firefox is playing youtube video normally. Than, I've noticed some icon in the left corner and it says that it is insecure mixed content. I went on "learn more" and found out that there is HTTP, HTTPS, and HTTP/HTTPS (mixed content), and that those pages are insecure, and that's why Firefox gave that announce. But unlikely the Opera, Firefox still plays youtube videos normally.

                          So, the problem is in this mixed content on youtube. First of all, I don't understand how youtube can be unsecure, or in mixed content, and also don't understand why Opera is blocking it so hard that even "unblock" button doesn't work?

                          Any solution, suggestion?

                            I don't think your problem is related to content block.

                            Do you use any extension?

                              The problem was in Kaspersky Internet Security. I first tried to just pause it, and problem still existed. Today I completely uninstalled it, and youtube works again.
