johnd78 last edited by@gkaczmarek Win 7x64 Home Premium. My way to reproduce this bug immediately: Change Win 7 "Aero" theme to "Basic", the address bar stops working.
Before
After
But the main complaint in that thread is that the address bar stops working a few minutes after starting the browser. The theme does not change, the bug appears suddenly.

The crash on many web site (with video) it’s a Linux only problem…
Update the libffmpeg.so (tested on Debian)
Download this from Herecura repo
https://repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x86_64/opera-beta-ffmpeg-codecs-93.0.4577.58-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
copy to
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra/libffmpeg.soRestart Opera
it's sad that Opera AS can’t provide this… -

How can I get this on Chromebook? Chromebook doesn't seem to handle these files.

Brave and Vivaldi have no such issues with these updates and libffmpeg.so on Chromebook/Linux. I wish Opera could be more user-friendly. I have to update libffmpeg.so on each update -- but the latest libffmpeg.so at GitHub.com https://github.com/iteufel/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt will not even work with this installation/update of Opera right now.

@gkaczmarek I won't be doing this because it is a libffmpeg.so issue. Opera could do themselves and their users a big favor by updating this file for Linux users. Thank you.

I still don't see the point of having a check for updates button. Every time you go there, it looks automatically for updates and the button is disabled, after it finds nothing (usually), the button is enabled so that you do the same thing again? it's nonsense.
And it's a duplicated function, we already got the about page doing the same and more easily.

@ddvddv: Nothing beats AdGuard, it's been the king for years, you people seriously need to mark a distance from AdBlock/AdBlocker/Adblock Plus, etc.
AdGuard and the Built in ad blocker and you're done.

chas4 last edited by@leocg The bug in the updater is 15+ versions old, reported it a long time ago and many others have confirmed it. You get stuck in an infinite loop as the Relaunch Opera button shows before the updater is done and the update fails starting an infinite loop.
Why Open the Web?
Despite the connecting purpose of the Web, it is not entirely open to all of its users.
When used correctly, HTML documents can be displayed across platforms and devices.
However, many devices are excluded access to Web content. -

@hectormaciasa1979 Note that checking for updates on
opera://aboutandopera://updatedoesn't work correctly right away when you first start Opera. You have to give the updater process time to load first. Then it'll work fine. So, if you start Opera, wait 30 seconds or so before loading the update page or about page. Then things should work better.Unfortunately, the update and about page code doesn't have a check for this and then a "waiting for update process to load" message. Instead, it just tries to check for updates before the process loads, which always fails and wastes your time.
