      Re: installing custom theme

      I can't seem to get custom Animated background to work using zip file Opera gx version: (LVL3 (core: 77.0.4054.298).

      i have added the files to a folder and have remade the ini files many times with different configs. is there a size limit on the webm? or length limit? There is sound in the webm i am testing, does it matter?

        @lande91 Yes, there is a size limit. Not sure about lenght.

        See https://dev.opera.com/articles/making-animated-themes/, it's old but should help.

          @leocg My webm was 63mb and the limit is 50mb. so close,
          after reducing the size to 13mb and a length of 15sec it still does not work. I use Winrar to make a .zip file, the files are named video.webm, persona.ini, first_frame_start_page.jpeg, have tried with and without a folder and i use the easy setup to choose a zip file from "add your wallpaper"

          ini file :

          [Info]
          name = test
          author = raudlauk
          author url =
          version = 2

          [Start Page]
          background = video.webm
          position = center bottom
          first frame image = first_frame_start_page.jpeg
