As I get more used to Opera, I am liking Opera more and more. I am having one issue at the moment that I thought that I would come here and try to get some help with.
Here is the address to a story on a local TV channel's news site:
http://www.whec.com/news/stories/S3855410.shtml?cat=565
The video there will not play for me. It is a Flash video, of course, but when you right click on it the "Anvato Universal Player" is in the list. This video plays fine for me in Slimjet (a Chromium based browser) and in Cyberfox (a Mozilla based browser). Other Flash videos play for me in Opera at other sites on the net. Why won't videos on this WHEC TV site play for me ? All of their videos are Flash and they all are using the Anvato player. Thanks for your help.

I disabled Adblock Plus on that site. The short ad plays fine using that player, but then the news story shows a black screen with the player controls at the bottom, but that video will not play. In my other browsers, the video plays fine with Adblock Plus running. I see no ad, just the news story. I can live with this, but it would be nice to understand what is going on since Opera is closely related to Chrome now.

Try viewing it in a Private Window, does that fix it? If so one of your extensions is causing the problem. Might not solve the issue but its a good thing to test for.

Thanks lando242. I tried a private window and was able to only view the commercial announcement part of the video (this happens on all of their video reports), and then the report is supposed to play and it is not. I just get a black screen that shows the video player controls. This is indeed a rather curious problem.

The video plays fine on Slimjet (which is based on Chrome). I also do not see the advertisement part of the video in Slimjet. I only see the news report.
