      @magikgimp Nope, in fact none were needed besides Operas'.

        Also, I forgot to mention earlier that in Opera the Default for Choose ANGLE graphics backend is listed as "Default [Undefined]" which is not how it is on other browsers. Don't know if that's an issue too at all.

          @magikgimp Shouldn't be. What's is selected in other browsers? What happens if you use the same in Opera?

            @magikgimp Right, according to the media-internals info, hardware acceleration is being used.

              And in case I misunderstood you it's D3D11 in Opera because I was testing whether it was working again and it's implied that "Default" is D3D11 and it's D3D9 in GX because that still works without black screens (although possibly impaired performance?) All other browsers haven't had their settings fiddled with.

                @magikgimp Yep, default on Windows is D3D11.
