      Hello,

      I installed Opera 23 and switched from Firefox. (Windows7/64)
      Impossible to play any track from Soundcloud.
      I get this warning :
      "It looks like you have a Flash blocker browser setting or extension. Please enable Flash to hear this"
      No extension.
      Where is this setting hidden?
      (Soundcloud works perfectly with IE or Firefox)
      Thanks for your help !

        Hello.

        Do you have Opera Turbo enabled? If so, please disable it from Opera's main menu. Opera Turbo blocks Flash and other plugins automatically. Also, if it doesn't help type ''opera:plugins'' (without quotes) in the address bar and look if Shackwave Flash is enabled.

          I haven't ever seen my turbo blocking anything.
          When you refer to nuOpera, wouldn't it be proper to say "OffRoad"? I don't know if it blocks something.

            They renamed it back to Turbo, Josh ...

            Shackware? 23 uses Adobe Flash.

              That's it !
              Disabling turbo solved the problem.
              Thanks ! 🙂

                  Josh,

                  Does your "anything" include Soundcloud tracks ?

                  For me it blocks nothing but Soundcloud.

                  Could you test this link, with and without Turbo :

                  https://soundcloud.com/g-rard-delassus/sets/chansons-5

                  GD

                    No, I don't have any.
                    I broke in because of Joe's words that "Opera Turbo blocks Flash and other plugins".
                    Sorry for possible misunderstanding, but I got curious if they'd done something to "Turbo/OffRoad" that it would take on blocking stuff. Haven't heard any such thing before...

                      That's why I'm interested to know if there is anyone else having the same problem with Soundcloud.
                      There was no misunderstanding from me...
                      And the same Soundcloud/Opera Turbo issue occurs on 4 PC's, 1xXP, 1xVista and 2 Win7.

                        @joshl, It's not actually a ''block'', when I say ''blocks plugins automatically'' I mean it creates a Click-to-play that doesn't let the plugins run automatically (only if you click on it). It ''blocks'' Flash, Silverlight, PDF plugins, etc. Sorry for creating confusion.

                          @sgunhouse, yes, I know, but if you look down it's called Shockwave Flash. It was a mistake...

                            It's good to know that, thanks.
