      Yes, same to me. The page keep crashing. It's so frustrating that with a problem solved (see my other thread) another one comes in. I thing it's something related to the replacement of the file libffmpeg.so that I usually overwrite for make the videos play on Opera. I've noticed that even Gmail page keep crashing, it's so odd and irritating. Someone can check if this file is responsable for the crash? Thanks

        Yes, before creating the topic I updated libffmpeg.so.
        link: https://github.com/iteufel/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt/releases/
        opera path: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra/

        Apparently, by removing the libffmpeg.so file from the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra/ directory, the problem did not occur again. This implies not being able to watch some youtube and whatsapp videos.

          @elviolmp So, apparently, we have the guilty one... 😧
          If I delete libffmpeg.so Opera doesn't even start... 😕

            Strange behavior!
            Anyway, here it's happening on my work notebook. At night, I will test it on my PC to see if the same problem will occur.

              See https://forums.opera.com/post/261968

              I download the libffmpeg.so from Herecura repo
              https://repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x86_64/opera-beta-ffmpeg-codecs-93.0.4577.58-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

                        Take a look at this two links below:
                        https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/530302-libffmpeg-so-and-Opera-browser-issue
                        https://www.ti-enxame.com/pt/opensuse/suporte-h.264-para-opera-e-opensuse/962659423/
                        (by the way, the second link is in portuguese and you can translate to english, if you need)

                        I hope this helps you!

                          Finally some solution for those annoying page crashes, thanks!
                          For those who use Ubuntu/Debian based distros, I created a simple deb package for myself with Opera fixes (ffmpeg, widevine/DRM), feel free to use it: https://github.com/swanux/opera_codecs
                          (For automatic updates you can add my PPA as described here: https://swanux.github.io/hrepo.html)

                            Hello
                            this works via a little roundabout...
                            I went to the server
                            https://repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x86_64
                            and searched in the directory for the right files
                            they are today, october 2nd

                            opera-beta-ffmpeg-codecs-94.0.4606.54-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

                            already a version ahaed as the link above....
                            Anyway , I learned what is a .zst file ,
                            Installed zstd, decompressed it to .tar and decompressed it into the famous libffmpeg.so
                            Copied it into the "lib_extra" directory
                            And it Works

                            Again a bit new learning for me in linux....
                            This is on Debian 11 on a intel core I3 laptop
                            Kind regards from F4VSJ, in Britany France

                              the newest link is version 94 instead of 93:

                              https://repo.herecura.eu/herecura/x86_64/opera-beta-ffmpeg-codecs-94.0.4577.58-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
                              this one works
