Youtube video issues

Hi, I'm running Opera beta 29.0.

For 2 weeks or so I've been having these issues with youtube videos:

• I open Opera, click on my youtube bookmark and I get to my youtube homepage. No problems thus far.
• I click on a subscription and go to the videos. No problems.
• After clicking on a video, it often happens that the video doesn't load whereupon I have to reload the page. It usually works after that.
• It seems the problem appears if I open multiple tabs from youtube.
• Another issue that seems to be connected is when I try to change the viewing mode from default to theatre, the youtube player forbids me to do so, but I can change to full screen without an issue.
• Another issue is that I can have multiple tabs open, some youtube, some others, and suddenly in one of the youtube tabs, the audio from a video I'd just played will start in spite of being on a different youtube link.

Hope that's clear. Thx.

Bump. I suppose a reinstall could help but I did one not so long ago. Also, last time I lost all my bookmarks and had to manually cut and paste them all from memory.

Too early for that.

Do you mean Opera beta 39?

After clicking on a video, it often happens that the video doesn't load whereupon I have to reload the page. It usually works after that.

No problems here. What version of Windows?

It seems the problem appears if I open multiple tabs from youtube.

What do you mean by 'multiple tabs' ? 3? 4? 10?

Well, I suppose multiple would mean more than 2 up to a what would be a reasonable number of tabs without stressing the RAM to the point where the computer freezes, which would be about 10 tabs.

So, I'd say multiple tabs would be between 3-9.

Does it matter? The purpose for communicating the number of tabs was to present the potential problem solver with an overview of the problem.

I'd update your browser before anything else. 29 is very old. Try sticking to the Stable releases also if you want better reliability.
