      Hello, since I installed and started using Opera (5 months ago) the HTML5 Twitter gifs and videos never work out. At that time I was still in Windows 7. Now that I am on Windows 10 and several sites have already changed their players for HTML5, Opera features incompatible with most! Instagram, Vimeo and Dailymotion are some in that the videos do not work. What annoys me most is still the Twitter, the message displayed is that the browser is not compatible ". Often I'm having to use the Edge to access these sites, which is very annoying. There are other reports on these issues between Opera and HTML5, when it will be solved?

      (Sorry for my bad English)

        They work fine here. Are you using Opera Turbo? An ad blocking extension?

          What does https://html5test.com/ says in the video codecs section? And on https://www.youtube.com/html5 all codecs are marked as supported?

            Opera Turbo disabled. My ad blocking is Adguard, I've tested with it disabled but nothing has changed.

                It's on the screenshot. It's also 31/35 and everything seems ok.

                    The problem seems to affect only Opera running on a 32bit machine. I installed Opera browser on a 64bit and on 2 pc's running 32bit (Windoes 10 pro), non problem with the 64bit but on both the 32bit pc's I can't play mp3 and mp4 videos.
                    If you go to this link: http://www.raistoria.rai.it/tempo-storia/default.aspx you will notice that the video won't play on OPERA 32bit but it will play on OPERA on a 64bit machine.
                    Obviously non problem with other browsers.

                          Rather amusingly, on Opera 12.17 on https://html5test.com/, it says "You are using an unknown browser that imitates Opera 12.17 on Windows XP"!
                          :lol:

                            Heh! 😛 Using Opera 12.14 and Win7 at https://html5test.com/, I got a slightly different message: "You are using an unknown browser that imitates Opera 12.14 on Windows 7"! I guess the site just can't believe anybody would still use an actual version of Olde Opera. That, or the guy who wrote their user-agent analyzer doesn't quite know what he's doing. My money would be bet on the latter.

                            By the way, for reference, that Opera 12.14 test scored 338 out of 555.

                              The problem is that Opera is not being able to launch the GPU process and it's necessary to run html5 videos.

                                  Try updating your graphic card driver.
