      Ever since Opera came out with their last couple of new versions, they've had a bug that's driving me crazy!

      During viewing of ANY video on ANY website, a green button keeps dropping down at irregular intervals down from the top center of the video window. The button is to open the video in a new window. When the button drops down, the video pauses and buffers. BTW, I'm running Windows 7 on my PC.

      Anyone else have this problem or know what to do about it? I really like Opera, but I'm about ready to drop it for another browser.

        You are talking about the video pop-out button? Moving the mouse away from the video should make it go away.

          Try disabling it or cleaning the cache, depending on what is your complain.

              Open settings (Alt+P) and type ‘video pop out’. Remove tick from ‘Enable video pop out’.
