          Hi, since my last update to Opera Beta Linux 79.0.4143.3 it keeps crashing ("Seite abgestürzt") on all Google, Facebook, and WhatsApp Web pages. Everything works fine on regular Opera 78.0.4093.147, on Opera Beta most other pages are also fine, e.g. Twitter and Spiegel Online.
          I disabled all extensions, no change.
          What can I do to help debugging?

            Youtube also crashes, rick2.
            rm -rvf .config/opera-beta/ .cache/opera-beta
            didnt change anything either.

              I expected unplayable video rather than page crashes due to an outdated video codec problem.

              Anyway, from https://repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x86_64/ I downloaded opera-beta-ffmpeg-codecs-93.0.4577.18-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst and extracted libffmpeg.so which was then placed in Opera's installation directory (opened as Root).

                @thelittlebrowserthatcould: thanks for the hint!

                I was about to downgrade to opera beta 78...

                I actually use the codecs from https://github.com/iteufel/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt but somehow I missed the new version (0.55.0, I'm on 0.50.0).

                  Damn, nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt 0.55.0 doesn't work with chromium 93, I'll try opera-beta-ffmpeg-codecs-93.0.4577.18.

                      Right, it seems to be the libffmpeg workaround. I am using the workaround from https://forums.opera.com/topic/37539/solving-the-problem-of-the-opera-browser-with-video-playback-in-ubuntu-and-similar-distributions-linux-mint-kde-neon
                      Switching back to the original libffmpeg solves the crashes, but then some videos can't be played...

                        Using https://repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x86_64/opera-beta-ffmpeg-codecs-93.0.4577.18-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
                        solves the codec problem. What is wrong with the libffmpeg snap compatibility?

                          I've noticed that Microsoft Edge is getting more and more like Opera. They have been incorporating several Opera features into the Edge, gradually. For example: news on speed dial, weather widget, animated wallpapers, snapshot tool in address bar with integrated mini editor, even highlighting the address bar in blue is almost the same.

                            The sidebar player could play local files too.

                                A further speed up of new stable versions of Opera is requested.
