<![CDATA[Facebook gif and videos]]>I'm using Opera since it was born, but now I'm experiencing a pretty peculiar problem:

When I click on a gif on facebook I see it just white, nothing moves, Ive to open it in another tab to see it, and when I click on videos on facebook I see just a blurred image and I can hear the sound of video. I note that I've installed the last version of Flash player and no extension at the moment.

Any possible solution?

Thx

So there's just no solution?

Install a new Windows version, maybe.

The mp4 video you linked me before can be easily viewed now with windows media player, but still not in Opera (as well as Fb videos and gifs) more ideas?

Yea but windows can play Gif, why Opera, on facebook, can't?

Because gifs on Facebook are actually mp4 videos.

I can't play that video on Windows player

That's why you can't play it in Opera. Opera depends on the OS (Windows) to play (some) proprietary codecs, so if Windows can not play the video then Opera will also not be able to do it.

There are the log messages errors.

I didn't install any codec.

I can't play that video on Windows player, but i can play it on VLC. Anyway the codec problem could somehow be related to gif images too? Cuz i don't see them also.

Check opera://media-internals/ while trying to play a video to see if it gives you some clue on the problem.

No, I hear only the sound

Did you ever installed a codec pack? If not, can you play that video on Windows Media Player?

Accelerated video decode has been disabled

It may be a problem.

Do you see a GPU process in Opera's task manager?

Does opera://gpu shows anything unusual?

Your Windows is a N version by chance?
