reason is wrong location

Did you manage to get it working? I added the lib64 paths after installing chromium via dnf but it still won't play h.264 encoded videos...

Or edit the file, but you will have to edit it the next time opera updates and changes it again.

Once it is installed, opera will detect it. Opera is hardcoded to look in these locations.

$ cat /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/resources/ffmpeg_preload_config.json
[
  "lib_extra/libffmpeg.so",
  "/usr/lib/chromium-browser/libffmpeg.so",
  "/usr/lib/chromium-browser/libs/libffmpeg.so"
]

I have no idea what the first one could be. The other two are where the chromium-codecs-* installs its libffmpeg.so, depending on your distro of course.

p.s. Stupid forum editor ruins the formation of what I wanted to write there. Here is a proper output on pastebin

If your distro already has chromium-codecs packaged, install it and opera will use chomium's libffmpeg.so which has far better html5 support.
