@andrew84: At least they finally fixed and improved their video pop-out feature.

@artexjay this is not their video pop-out anymore, this is default Chromium's popup (their original popup is still broken and won't be fixed).
Explanation is here https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2019/11/opera-66-0-3511-0-developer-update/#comment-190672 -

@burnout426 vk.com , ok.ru
In addition, on these sites, I began to hang and slow down the video. If I hover my mouse over a tab, the video stops hanging and slowing down.

@burnout426 any video or just a song.
Had trouble finding URLs as I don't have accounts with them. But, I hunted on Google for some .
I tried with https://ok.ru/live/1386345799187 in Opera 66.0.3515.2 64-bit on Windows 10 1909 with the video set to 480p and 720p. The video does not studder at all for me and plays fine. There's also very little difference in CPU usage when the tab audio indicator is animating and when it's not.
I also tried https://vk.com/video-126024280_456239281 (which is just an embedded youtube video) and the same results.
All seems good to me.

@burnout426: I have the following results with the first video on Win8x64 (approx. the same timeline and I turned off antivirus). As you see CPU speed shows maximum when unmuted and ~3 times less when muted.

@burnout426 There's a difference also if I hover the cursor over the tab or mute it, I forgot to mention. So, I'm not sure how big is the difference, it seems that the animation always shows the full speed, but when muted the cpu speed varies (but I see the full speed not so often with muted tab in contrast to the active equalizer)

But the CPU load is not so bad. The video on the website vk.com and ok.ru started hanging and slow down . And if I hover my mouse over a tab of these sites, then the video starts to play well.

Are you sure this is Opera's problem? As soon as you open the video on vk.com and ok.ru, buffering begins, which can cause hangs and slowdowns within seconds.
For me personally, the fix "DNA-82626 [Win] High CPU usage due to media indicator animation" solved the video problem, I don't see much difference with Сhrome now. -

Yes, I'm sure, since I can see that the buffering has already passed.
And when you hover over a tab vk.com or ok.ru the video starts playing normally.
on stable Opera 65.0.3467.48 there is no such problem on the site vk.com -

@temkem I checked again in Opera Developer 66.0.3515.2 and in Opera Bera 66.0.3515.3, I have no problem. It’s strange.

@johnd78 @temkem Dear fellows in front of the screen,
There is nothing strange about having different hardware and software.

I turned off theopera://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-decodeflag and the videos on these sites began to work normally.
But why isn't there such a problem on stable Opera and no problem on the Vivaldi browser? -

@temkem Not sure. Guess there could be a change in Chromium that caused the difference. I guess you could compare
opera://gpubetween stable and developer to see if there are any differences. Also, with Vivaldi, I'm assuming you tried the snapshot and not stable. Vivaldi is often behind in Chromium, so you want the latest snapshot to at least get a build with a newer Chromium.
