In the "software manager" of Mint now you can download flatpack package with the codecs integrated, no more struggle.

@mr-matt-eastwood Thank you! This worked for me too. Of-course the path was a bit different for me. Specifically it was "/snap/chromium-ffmpeg/30/chromium-ffmpeg-108372/chromium-ffmpeg" and it had other options, but it worked!

I'm facing an issue while trying to stream videos from GogoAnime on the Opera browser. Despite trying all above troubleshooting methods, I haven't been able to resolve the problem. I'm reaching out to the community for any suggestions or alternative solutions you might have.
Here's a summary of the steps I've taken so far:
Checked my internet connection: It's stable, as I can stream from other platforms without any issues.
Updated Opera: I'm using the latest version of the browser to ensure compatibility.
Cleared cache and cookies: Tried removing browsing data to address potential conflicts, but it didn't help.
Disabled extensions/plugins: Temporarily turned off all extensions and plugins, but the problem persisted.
Tried private browsing: Attempted to stream in incognito mode, but still encountered the same issue.
Updated Adobe Flash Player: Ensured Flash Player was up to date, but it didn't solve the problem.
Contacted Opera support: Reached out to them, but their response didn't offer a specific solution for GogoAnime streaming.
I'm feeling discouraged after trying these steps with no success. If anyone has experienced a similar issue or has any suggestions, please share your insights.
Thank you for your assistance!
Ps. the websites i tried are given below -

@gogoanime6 Opera does not incluse proprietary video codecs.. Find the package chromium-codecs-extra or corresponding package for your system for Opera's version of Chromium and install it.

Can confirm this solved the issue for me.
I figured out how to use snap library, as @mr-matt-eastwood suggested.On Manjaro Linux 20, opera directory is /usr/lib/opera.
You don't have to delete original libffmpeg.so file, but just rename it to whatever (including extension).Steps:
# If you cannot use sudo -i, then just prefix your commands with sudo sudo -i # Close your browser by hand. Following command will ensure no Opera processes are running in the background killall opera cd /usr/lib/opera # Some software automatically loads any .so/.dll file that is present. Not sure for Opera, but just in case mv libffmpeg.so libffmpeg.so_original snap install chromium-ffmpeg # Please note that chromium-ffmpeg-95241 path might differ. Just pickup one with highest number. ln -sf /snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/chromium-ffmpeg-95241/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.so libffmpeg.so
Works like charm.
This worked like charm. Only change I noticed is opera path: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera for version 100.0.4815.76

@marek-online Worked well with my Xubuntu 22,04 LTS here. I just created a backup of this original shitty ffmpeg and changed the second command to the corresponding folder in my computer:
sudo cp /snap/chromium-ffmpeg/34/chromium-ffmpeg-111306/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera-beta/libffmpeg.so
Thank you all for the tips!

This works on Fedora (38 Workstation tested) as well, but paths are slightly different.
chromium-ffmpeg snap: /var/lib/snapd/snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/chromium-ffmpeg-111306/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.so
Opera install dir: /usr/lib64/operaln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/chromium-ffmpeg-111306/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.so /usr/lib64/opera/libffmpeg.so
chromium-ffmpeg version might differ, so make sure to find the directory with the highest number by using:
ls -al /var/lib/snapd/snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/
As always, make sure to backup original libffmpeg.so file, as I had experience where Opera would refuse to start with new file - probably incompatible version.

This should not be up to the user to fix this.
Even they release a complete new version and still dont fix with problem with find codecs path installed in the user machine !!!!!
