<![CDATA[Opera and Vine videos....]]>I have had this issue for ages now. I remember it starting with some version 12 build, and I just gave up on fixing it, used FF instead for Vines. A while later I "upgraded" to Opera 19, and some old issues were fixed, others appeared. Tried again to get Vines to work today, and came upon a tip to try to enable the "Disable hardware-accelerated video decode" option in chrome://flags. That didn't work, so I just upgraded Opera to 20.0.1387.82. Still no Vine videos. Reset the flags option to default again, no dice.

Yes, latest Flash, everything works in any other browser tested, like latest FF or Chrome. What is the issue here?

Vine videos load a black embedded screen with the mute/un-mute button and Vine logo overlay visible, but no still picture or anything. Right clicking on it shows a greyed out "Movie not loaded..." above the "About Adobe Flash etc..." Have tried to fiddle with Flash player settings, disabling hardware acc etc, nothing works.

For instance, this page: https://vine.twitter.com shows all black screens. Plays fine in other browsers.

I have Two laptops running Windows, both have Ver 34 Opera installed, the newest of the machines runs Vine and embedded videos on Twitter. The older machine does not

Opera relies on the OS (and also on gpu? Not sure.) to play html5 media so old hardware and/or OSs will not play those media.

The older machine does not. Report: This browser does not support video playback. This can't be a native fault in Opera, as IExplorer does display video on the older machine, it is I conclude a possible fault in HTML5 or Flash.

  • The HTML5 video tag works perfectly
  • MP4 videos on the video tag load and play correctly
  • It's not a problem on my end because I also have Firefox, Chromium AND Chrome and Vine videos play on them.
  • The disable hardware-accelerated video setting is only for mac and windows users, I can't set that flag on Linux.

The thing is... I DON'T WANT to use any of those browsers, Opera is my favourite one, where I keep all my bookmarks and tabs so... Help? Please?

Have you tried the fixes suggested in this thread? It seems that everyone that has been having this issue so far is because something was wrong on their end.

Guess you can mess around with that to fix your problem
(the graphics driver or hardware settings in Opera)

Due to this I've switched to Chrome but I miss Opera so I revisited today to find the annoying vine issue bugging me again. Opera is one of the top browsers and it isn't going to remain at the top with compatibility issues with extremely popular media including Vine.

I can't tell from your post if it's something in the works or something Opera doesn't care about.

I enjoy using the Vine service, and it's a pain to switch browsers all the time.
