[Solved]Problem with video playing

Hi, it's 2017 and half of the videos I want to play on Opera don't work.
I'm on the 42.0.2393.94 version, Windows 10 64, on a Dell XPS 13 (2016).
The problem happens with most of videos posted on Twitter. The videos simply don't launch, and I get an error message "The media could not be played".
I've read a few possible solutions here and there, mostly consisting in modifying the flags, especially "#disable-accelerated-video-decode", but I didn't work (I'm ready to try one more time, though, if someone has clear instructions to give!).
This issue appears on other video player as well, for example http://video.eurosport.co.uk, with an other error message: The video is bad or in a format that cannot be played on your browser
Error Code: MEDIA_ERR_DECODE
Technical details:
The video playback was aborted due to a corruption problem or because the video used features your browser did not support.Videos work fine in Youtube BUT when I pause a video for more than 5 minutes and then relaunch it, it won't work and i have to refresh the page.
I hope someone has a solution! Because I was really enjoying this browser but this keeps being more and more annoying to me :(.

Thx for the answer. The video works!
Btw, it reminds me of an other problem I have with webm videos: they sometimes launch, but stop after some time (usually around 1/5fth of the video) and i can't move forward.

That's a good sign, I guess.

If you download those videos and try to play them, do they play fine?

That's interesting. When i download them and play them for the first time with VLC, they briefly freeze where Opera stops, and then go on playing. On the second playing, they work fine.

I find it quite surprising that no one can help... Frankly, given this kind of problem and the dynamism of the community, Chrome Mozilla and Edge can sleep on both ears

GpuProcessHostUIShim: The GPU process exited normally. Everything is okay.My laptop is the XPS 13 (2016). So the cpu is an i5 7200U, 8G0 LPDDR3, intel HD 620.
Btw, thanks for your answers and attention -

Just by restarting Opera or do u mean a reset? Because I'm on this browser only since a few weeks, and i've always had this kind of problem...

Hi! Suprisingly not, Opera did the update to the 42.0.2393.137 this morning and every video is now playing fine oO. Well, thx for the pieces of advice, and long life to Opera!
