<![CDATA[Video playback]]>This has probably been discussed many times, so my apologies. However I cannot play videos on certain sites, You tube is fine, but Facebook for instance not. Have followed all instructions about flash updates etc, but still no joy. Please please someone advise ?

Many thanks
Derek

Hardware acceleration disabled" mode, which caused many problems with Youtube html5 player as well as several other problems.

The solution is to go to opera://flags and in search bar type the specific category of "Graphics Feature Status" (in my case "Rasterization" for example). Since this is to do with GPU, i enabled "GPU rasterization" and right away under "Graphics Feature Status" , in opera://gpu, next to "Rasterization" appeared a green "Hardware accelerated" sign.

I did the same with "Video Encode". Literally the same and now i DON'T have to wait couple of hours to see an uploaded video in Youtube in html5, I can watch Youtube streams (also html5). I am not so much into twitter or vine, but i think this fixed ALL my video playback issues in opera. You are Welcome.

I want to switch from Safari to Opera but I really need to get this issue solved first.

Some videos play fine but sometimes i have to go to youtube's site directly to view videos and even then it seems to load the player in flash instead of HTML5.

I'm using the mac beta version with VPN
