@leocg: If Opera cannot provide a working libffmpeg/WidevineCdm library, can they at least provide some contrib scripts to update them more smoothly for Linux not-savvy users ?
And having a warning that we miss some chromium plugin or alternate download of Widevine library would be more useful that "Video is broken" message from the provider, IMO.

You have when we right-mouse click on a link: Open Link in New Tab | Open Link in New Window | Open Link in Private Window.... etc...
Perhaps you can give your users an option such as: Open Link in Chromium ... for Linux users? No it's not the best solution... It's a workaround... but better than a big screen stating 'error'....

Hello
I get no success with playing videos from Tiktok, the front frame appears on the player with the icon "start" (a triangle) but this icon is inactive, click on it and nothing happens
Opera for Linux (LM) I get the same issue with Chrome and Brave
Only Firefox plays their videos -

@lu-menard After further assays I must tell that these videos play on Chrome

Hi, does anyone can explain to me why can't I watch Prime video on Opera?
I'm aware that Amazon doesn't stream in HD, but only in SD on Linux. However, I can't watch Prime at all and that's really annoying. On Firefox I simply clicked on a popup to enable DRM contents and the video streaming worked just fine. Thanks! -

@PixCatholica It's insane that you posted this in July and there are still issues with this. I can't watch animated gifs. Does Opera even look at these forums? Do they even pay attention to the bug reports?

@clatsopduck I'm having the same issue. Animated gifs from Imgur aren't working either.
