Hello everyone. I noticed that some sites with opera do not support video autoplay and video format. An example is dzen.ru when I split the cursor on the video should start the preview, when I click on the video should start playback, instead appears a codec error not supported

@leocg I followed the instructions in the forum post and opera no longer opens for me. I had to uninstall and reinstall it. For the solution it is not clear what should be done. There are many commands or files to modify, and it is not clear what the final solution is

lol, using opera for linux requires some linux skills.

/ps: still using the old solution from @xZero with Debian 12 and works like a charm

@leocg No, there are lots of links and it's not clear what to do.

@nneo16 I don't have the curl command, if I install it it tells me that I have a version that is too old
