Unintended Strobing Videos

For some reason, whenever I play a video, anywhere, borders and other areas begin flashing, constantly! What the hell is up with that? And it's been going on for quite some time, many months, just as passwords not being saved. Why is it so hard for Opera to even do basic functions?

@stevenjcee I tried to upload a video of my screen to show what's happening, but Opera tells me I don't have permission to do so! Great...

@stevenjcee Yes, the forum doesn't support the upload of videos. You can upload it somewhere and paste the link to it here.

@leocg I thought that's what I did, as I uploaded it, and then, as now, Opera is showing some kind of icon on the bottom right of this page, which is what I copied and pasted in that last post. If it doesn't allow this, why doesn't it say what to do, and why does it leave this red circle with a black eye shaped image on it, sitting on the page???

@stevenjcee When you upload something and there is a problem, the preview shows that.

@leocg Thanks, it would be nice if they might let us know what that thing is. It's still sitting on the bottom right of this window, and I've opened and closed Opera several times already. What do I have to do to get rid of it, whatever it is?
And any idea about the flashing/strobing issue? Oops, for a minute I thought it wasn't happening anymore, but soon as the YouTube page fully loaded, the strobing began. That's another infuriating aspect, of videos just auto-playing whenever I re-open Opera, they'll begin long before the page full loads, and so there's not even a pause button or stop button for me to kill the video! So I have to wait until it loads, but of course, it'll play right from jump... makes no sense....
