@avl I have the same issue. It started after updating opera and my mac on the same day.
It's happening on sites like
-
IMDB where the video starts then freezes and then you see : This video file cannot be played.
(Error Code: 224002) . -
Tumblr where the video disappears as soon as I try to play it.
-
On instagram the video starts playing then stops.
-
It's also happening on various streaming websites, such as Vidtodo where the video does not play at all and it says The media playback was aborted due to a corruption problem or because the media used features your browser did not support.
Would love some help! thanks. The videos are playing fine on Safari, but I usually prefer Opera and would like to keep using it.

Hi guys, and what if you enable the
opera://flags/#ffmpeg-demuxer-everywhere
, and restart the Opera, does it help? -

Hi @matt616, nice to hear that, but enabling or disabling works?

It was disabled by default for the version of Opera that I was using, so I selected enable and that worked for me.
