I'm not using Linux. I'm running this in Windows 10. As I always have. -

libffmpeg.sois a Linux file, that1s why you don't find it on Chromium/Chrome for Windows. Please read the instructions and provide the necessary information. -

That explains the lack of that file.
I was having this issue with a brand new install and update of Opera but I went ahead and reset things anyway as the instructions said with no improvement.
Amazon error says I must upgrade to a newer version of Opera but I'm already using what appears to be the latest. (70.0.3728.106)
Netflix gives error code O7355.
Imdb gives Error Code: 224003. -

Darned if I know what they mean. All I know is I can't get videos to play at any site I've tried other than Youtube. Just though I'd include the error codes on the chance that someone else might know.Dude... You're talking to an old guy here. I've at least heard of mp4.. Never heard of h264... I have no idea what format things use. Where would I go to try those things?
I thought of another place to try. On Facebook I can play videos but have no sound. -

@rhsou Did you try searching for them at least?
The Netflix one led me to an article mentioning Windows N. Do you have a N version of Windows 10 by chance?
H264 is probably the most used video codec nowadays.
You can try opening a video from your computer in Opera.

OK so I went to Windows update and had it scan for updates and it tells me there are none.
Next step was to do a search for Windows 10 Pro N video.
I found this: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3145500/media-feature-pack-list-for-windows-n-editions
I followed the instructions there and..... Videos now play perfectly. Thank you for your assistance.
