Video not playing in OPERA
-
loopy1945 last edited byI saw an old topic about this and was going to reply there but it asked me to start a new topic as it was quite old.
I am using OPERA 51.0 and have an awful time playing videos from any site. Most times I just get an error or it will start playing then stop half way through and say it's not available in my country. You Tube seems to be OK but that's about it. This is very frustrating. To see the video I have to open Chrome. I like the features in Opera but shouldn't have to open a different browser to watch videos. Any help appreciated.

@leocg - I went to the link but I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. Bear with me. I'm a senior so not up on all this stuff.
My operating system is windows which is why I posted it as a problem in Opera for Windows. Perhaps it would be better if I just played videos in Google.
Sorry for any trouble.

@loopy1945 Did you do all the steps that should be done before posting?
What version of Windows are you using?
Where are the links to some example pages where the problem happens?

@leocg guess it depends on gpu type somehow. on 2nd pc with very old intel HD 2000 graphics all fine, on pc with radeon 4600 series video is broken like shown, but audio works.. i was trying to adjust nearly everything within opera://flags related to gpu / rendering but no luck..... not sure if support of some features were dropped from 51.

In settings, check "show advanced settings", search for "hardware" and disable hardware acceleration.

@jeylm jeylm is that Radeon 4600 card for a 32 bit or 64 bit win 10 ? !..
if so - The last operating system supported using the AMD drivers was Microsoft Windows 8 with the AMD Catalyst 13.1 driver package.. - Driver Supported for AMD Radeon HD 4000, HD 3000, HD 2000 and older Series..
the good news is - Win 10 is only available via Windows Update. Please enable Windows Update to allow it to automatically detect and install display driver version 8.970.100.9001
bad news is - ATI Radeon HD Series 4600 latest driver is broken on Windows 10 at least as far back to November 28, 2017.. Not unless they fixed it lately..

@nvmjustagirl its 64bit, exactly with the same driver (WU provided ) which you mention. anyway, the videos are broken just since update to opera 51. in MS edge and firefox 59 i have no issues.
