MrMuFa5a last edited byHi, want to report a issue with medium to small images blurry
sample:
opera 89.0.4447.38:
brave/chrome/firefox (all up to date, no difference):
my first guess was some anti aliasing was filtering the images (but only the small ones? weird).
flagging #use-angle to d3d9 "solve" the issue for like 3 days, but now, no even disabling hardware acceleration my previous work around, don't fix it.
try:
-some others flags (all gpu ones, vulkan, etc), no results.
-purging cache (AppData\Local\Opera Software\Opera Stable) and data (AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable), no results.
-reinstalling fresh, no data/cache, no extensions, no flags or any other modification, no results.
-fiddling with NVidia control panel, no results.
-Installing previous versions(83 71 66), no results.
-creating a new user profile and Installing, no anti-virus or other programs running, no results.
-in other pc (windows 7 home premium, intel graphics) same results.my current OS is Windows 10 pro 21h2 19044.1826 (Nvidia GTX 1080 516.59)
Any ideas? Thanks.

Which zoom % are you using? I tried different zooms from 100% to 200% and it looked fine all the way.
Did you check if the source image used by the browsers is the same in all cases?Here, for HP it uses this one:
https://support.hp.com/static/hp-portal-theme-static/themes/Portal8.0/hp/images/toronto_Avatar.pngDid you try downloading a Opera portable to see how it works there?

@mrmufa5a You have all versions here:
https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera/desktop/The latest 83:
https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera/desktop/83.0.4254.62/win/Opera_83.0.4254.62_Setup_x64.exeBut I guess it will eventually update to the most recent one anyway, unless it's blocked.
So my guess is that it's due to something with your profile. Does this also happen in a Private Window? If it does, you can try clicking on "reset all" in opera://flags.
Regarding my previous reply, what about the zoom level and the image source? In the case of HP, it's just a matter of right clicking on the picture and opening it in a new tab.

@alobpreis im using a 125% zoom on my pc, the other 3 laptops (acer, hp and lenovo) 100%
the sample image (https://support.hp.com/static/hp-portal-theme-static/themes/Portal8.0/hp/images/toronto_Avatar.png) form HP looks normal at 100% up, but is the image is below 75% zoom star to blur, and 50% zoom for example:
75% zoom hardly noticeable:
Opera portable
Opera desktop
50% zoom:
Opera portable
Opera desktop
now, get this, in opera desktop, if you load the imagen sample at 100% and them zoom down to 50% looks normal but if you click/move to other tab, minimize opera or change to another app or folder maximize, get blurry.

I also tried this and could not reproduce.

https://portableapps.com/news/2022-02-15--opera-portable-83.0.4254.62-releasedThe profile and cache folders you deleted, are the ones that are displayed here?
opera://aboutA portable installation should be the same as a 100% fresh new installation, there must be something remaining somewhere.
In case you want to investigate, I recommend a tool called Everything, which lets you find any file or folder by name on all your drives, but at lightning speed (it might just take some seconds on the first run).

@alobpreis and, i believe i found the reason.
looks like the installers in the repository (https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera/desktop/) are tamper or corrupt.
i install opera with the web installer form the website download bottom (OperaSetup.exe 2.64 MB), and no issues, all pictures/images crisp and pristine.
if you install opera 89.0.4447.48 (the last update) or any other prior versions listed on the repository (https://get.opera.com/ftp/pub/opera/desktop/) you will get the blurry image issue.
that explain why the issue persist on PCs with different OS, brand, parts and configurations, shame because i don't like the floating tool tips on the tabs, i guess i just have to live with that.
If opera staff read this(i dont now if they do), plz check with the repository installers, they might be compromised/corrupt.

I can confirm the issue here on Win 8.1x64.
The image on HP website is blurry (2nd picture) in O78 (I'm using daily) and clear (1st picture in the latest Stable 89.0.4447.48 PortableI put 200% zoom in browser for larger image (usually I use 125% as default zoom)
Edit: Portable I mean the USB installation option selected in installer.
I also checked in latest Opera developer and the image looks clear too. Developer is installed (not portable) but was downloaded from ftp.
I can't remember how the 78 version was installed so I can't say whether there is really some issue or in 89 version and developer version there are some enhancements are made regarding the image displaying. -

@andrew84 Just tested opera portable/usb 89.0.4447.48, images are perfect.
i have both versions, portable/usb and desktop web installer 89.0.4447.38 working fine, opera updates are disable, by me.
i will test opera desktop 89.0.4447.48 form the FP and form web installer later.

TBH, the second image looks better to me, it's interpolating properly, while the first one has jaggies. Maybe you need to do the screenshot at 125% and then duplicate its size without any interpolation to clearly show how 125% looks like.
