Hi All,

I have a Dokuwiki wiki site and I quite often embed videos in a page, such as links to YouTube.
In opera I just see a Ghosted player that can't be activated.

All other browsers show the video player just fine (Firefox, Chromium). I can play the movie in the small embedded player.

Normal Youtube videos play just fine and the Adobe player is intsalled ....

Opera version is: 43.0.2442.806

Thanks,

[bmentink]

Many Thanks, I installed the opera-ffmpeg-codecs package from AUR, and now it all works ..
So the question that begs is why Opera does not support h264 codecs?

Opera doesn't include proprietary codecs for licensing reasons. If your system already has the codecs (recent versions of Windows or OSX) or you install them from other sources it will use them, but it does not include them.

In linux and others they should advertise about that, lately many post about this setback.

Create a suggestion post to ask for it.
