      @leocg when the resize cursor appears on the pop-out video and you try to resize it; it doesn't do anything....also every time i want to use this feature, the standard size of the pop-out video becomes smaller...Here is an gif explaining the problem: https://www.dropbox.com/s/g21cm8f1gvdeujw/opera.gif?dl=0

        @ashrayspin Here I can resize the video pop-out without problems.

        Did you check with a clean profile?

                @leocg what do you guys mean by a clean profile? I've logged off and on from everything, closed all my tabs (had quite a few open), cleared my history and cookies, reset my configurations and ultimately un-installed and installed it again, the problem continues for me.

                    @leocg hey thanks for the feedback. I'm not really savvy with this stuff, I went there and it took me to a folder named 'Opera Stable,' should I just rename the whole folder to something else or is it a file inside this folder that I need to rename? I looked for a 'profile' folder or file inside this directory but could not find any. Also, does it matter what I rename it to? Sorry for all the questions, I really do appreciate any feedback.

                      @leocg nevermind, I changed the name for 'Opera Stable' and it worked. Thanks again for all the help!

                        @ashrayspin just following up on this. This method of a clean profile worked at first, but after only half a day it went back to the video sizing being locked for me and the video being smaller. is yours still working?

                                Funny thing happened.. Opera updated and the video pop out is even smaller now. Please fix it. Thank you.

                                    I do have the black borders on the left, right, and bottom of the video player.

                                    I have no issues resizing the pop-out player as long as I hover over the border of the video rather than the video player.

                                      For those with problems, try out with a Private Window / Clean profile.

                                      The three black borders happens here also on every stream.

                                            @sirlinx I found a way to fix it. In the Appdata/Roaming, there's a folder called "Opera Software" and inside of it is "Opera Stable". Then find the "Preferences" file and edit the string thingy called "window_placement_video_popout" then change the "height" and "left" that you want. This allows you not to lose your history, cookies, passwords and etc.

                                            I hope this helps you
