      Even the HTML5 test video fails to play for me.

        Have you tried putting the BBC website on the list of exceptions to AdBlock?

          I am having the same issues. Video playbakc on most sites either doesn't work or is laggy/buggy. Running opera also seems to be slowing my pc down.

            I came here with the same problem - a quick search has fixed it for me - disable the Opera Adblocker.
            Menu > Settings > Block ads

            However, the HTML5 video test you linked to worked for me with the adblocker enabled, so I'm unsure if we have the same problem.
