Early I could drag image from link like this
http://i.ytimg.com/vi/6f7pgA0riU8/0.jpg
to my dekstop. And I always got 0.jpg
But now I got 0.webp instead of it. What is it?
There's trouble also with other images from some sites. Only in Opera

you probably have turbo mode ON
When it's ON, data goes trough Opera compression proxy.
Those webp files are compressed images (and they are pretty good in quality/ size ratio)
If you want native support in your OS for webp, you should install codec
https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/docs/webp_codec
then you can open those images in, for instance, windows photo viewer
(but many other image viewers doesn't support webp)If you download image from right click menu>>save as... (while turbo is ON), opera will download original file, not compressed
...
edit:
actually, if you drag link to desktop, it will still be a link, not image...
but everything else stands for webp -

The expected behavior is Opera to save the original file even with Turbo enabled (e.g. if you save the image with the context menu it'll come in jpeg, dragging to the desktop should yield the same result).
This is considered a bug. I'll report it.

Hey, everyone. I understand how old the thread is, but this is still a problem.
I want webp disabled completely. It is inexcusable that the browser displays an image as one filetype and forcibly, exclusively downloads it as another. No, Turbo isn't on. Yes, I'm using the newest version of Opera.
Remove webp entirely, or tell us how to shut it off. None of my operating systems can even open the files and they're even more worthless if I have to put the image into editing software.
Thanks.
