Video pop-out scaling problems and crash with YT clips

Description:
After update to Opera 41 video pop-out started having following problems:- last size and position is not remembered, newly opened pop-out shows up much larger and partially off screen
- pop-out aspect ratio is no longer locked (x,y dimensions of the window were locked to the actual video aspect ratio) which is much less convenient while resizing
- using "Back" or "Reload" buttons on another tab causes pop-out to disappear (more than 50% of the time, however I do have ~25 different tabs open)
Steps to reproduce:
- open any YT video, activate and move/resize pop-out
- open new tab with any website, click several following links in that tab, than use "Back" or "Reload" button, pop-out should disappear
- go back to the tab with YT clip still playing, reopen pop-out, it will open with different dimensions than before
Actual result: Listed above
Expected result:
- pop-out should not disappear
- pop-out should remember last size and position
- imo pop-out should have locked aspect ratio (although there might be an option to lock/unlock it in settings)
OS:
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Service Pack 1
Intel Core i5-3320M, 8GB RAMVersion of Opera:
41.0.2353.46Does anyone else noticed similar problems? I did the update today, can't remember my previous version and it might have been earlier than 40. However it worked much better before the update.

I have had all the same issues you describe. Turning off hardware acceleration for the popout may help. See these posts:

Hi,
Thank you for your replies. Disabling hardware acceleration fixed those problems.
