Out of memory when watching stream on YouTube

When I watch a stream on YouTube, Opera cannot play the stream, freezes and gives an error. My computer is not weak, I cleared the cache and reinstalled Windows. Other browsers work fine.

@leocg absolutely any live stream trigger the issue
I've found that streams that have comments disabled work just fine

@vkyd same problem, i hope the "moderator" would answer this instead of "replying" with a question and no "follow up". it is very inconvenient and i am considering uninstalling and using another browser instead.

@oesophagus369 Moderators are regular users like any other and they don't have answers or solutions for everything.

@leocg your comment is not replying to the original topic missing the point thus has no value and is a waste of my time to read it and a waste of my email space. I suggest you give up volunteering if you don't intend to change that.

@oesophagus369 It's replying to your post, addressing what you've said. If you don't like a comment, a reply, just ignore it.

And if you continue with that kind of post, you won't be a member of this forum for that long.

@leocg you're right i apologise. I was expecting like other forums i would see solutions after searching for a specific problem, but i was wrong for venting my anger on you.
Thanks for your reply.

@leocg I figured it out. This is not an Opera problem, but a YouTube problem. Under certain conditions, this problem occurs in all browsers, on any device.

@leocg
This is an example, The video starts freezing, then the error of out of memory appears.

This is all extensions that is enable in opera.

@tchelofa How long for the page to crash? So far, RAM and CPU usage seems normal here.

I have the same problem on firefox but there isn't any out of memory error. It just freezes and is unusable. Brave has out of memory error too. I saw reddit post and a lot of people are having this issue right now. It's youtube fault.
