Yes,
Remember it because of that user.Somewhere read it's related to a W7 bug, but there didn't had responses, so I'm asking here to assure it.
Also,
I've asked days ago on Dev's build Blog whether is related but no one answered.We will see if the affected users does.

@zalex108 this bug is no more for a few weeks now, but I can't remember which update solved it. And it is Windows 10 - updated.

tested the new Opera Developer 68.0.3590.0 @ Utube
gpu was a little high until ya hover mouse over the speaker Animation
then it drops a lot, esp if ya mute it for a moment then un - mute leave 'n mouse hover 'n..
when click 'n PIP - i notice the gpu was lots better while watch 'n a video even tho lack 'n a few things..
so to me watch 'n vids is lots better on gpu use 'n the popout !..

Since new PIP just playa on the PopUp the equalizer becomes inactive.
That way I can watch and browse.

Then, I'll try here also.
I don't know where to search to find the solution.A Profile rebuild will be needed.
If you try copy pasting files, you may find the problematic file.
I doubt I'll dedicate all that amount of time to do it.

@zalex108 I have found the difference. In my case, a youtube video consumed 2-3 times more CPU resources than usual if I searched for this video directly through the address bar with the
opera:flags/#reborn-3-dropdown
flag turned off. If this flag is enabled, everything is fine. This is strange, but I checked several times. -

@marjang I have already lost faith that they will fix it, I have had it since version 64.

Here still happens, but...

Checked it again. Yes, you're right, I still have this problem with media indicator animation on Win 7.
And there's a feature. If the "Aero" theme is turned off in Win 7, there is a difference in CPU resources usage when watching video in Chrome and Opera, but it is insignificant. If the "Aero" theme is turned on, the difference is very noticeable.
If you put the mouse cursor over the indicator, there is no difference in Chrome and Opera. -

A user posted months ago, that the problem is related to W7.
Since now is just supported on Business environment, I don't expect a fix.
I don't know if happens on W10 too.
You can use PiP to avoid the animated icon or change the Browser.
There are Free VPN extensions and Apps/Services out there.

I have recently downloaded Opera and the CPU usage when using Twitch/Youtube is unbearable!! Even on full screen video where the audio tab can't be seen. I've been watching streams on 360p and it STILL buffers every ten seconds or so. CPU drops to 2-5% when Opera is closed and as soon as I play a video it shoots up normally to around 40-50% but can be steadily over 95% for ages. I think my laptop's going to explode. No programs in bg other than Windows required ones and only one tab open. Piss poor to be honest, especially having seen the comments above from ages ago!!

@puplock Goto the URL
opera://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-decode
, disable the flag, and restart Opera to see if it helps. Or, mess withopera://flags/#use-angle
. Or, goto the URLopera://settings/system
, disable "hardware acceleration", restart Opera and try things out.
