              Install the extension MAGIC ACTIONS and in Options select Flash in paragraph Force Player Type. This should help.

                      Do not start or play the video on YouTube, it's just not the collapse update!

                        For months I had problems watching videos on YouTube, disabling opera:flags#mse-h264 solved the problem

                            Youtube videos are playing fine here even with opera://flags/#mse-h264-support enabled.

                                Same problem here with a Win7-32bit/NV8800GT/AMDX2 3800+. Disable "h264 support" may work, but also disables any GPU hardware acceleration(so its more like a workaround and not a fix!). HTML5 videos work fine in Chrome or Firefox tho.

                                  Because Opera can not support HTML5 video?

                                    Disabling opera://flags/#mse-h264-support still doesn't solve the problem, it doesn't load the whole video completely and stalls, I had to resort to install the extension "YouTube Center" and unchecked DASH playback

                                      Every time I do the "disable thing" and then click on the button above to restart Opera it causes by computer to literally BSOD. (Windows Vista.)

                                        BSOD are generally caused by driver issues and hardware faults. Write down the code that shows and google it. While Opera may be the trigger it isn't the root cause.
