There must be something wrong with your system for Opera to take 25s, did you use a stop watch? Even snap does not take that long. What Linux are you using? are you running on SSD, enough free RAM? CPU doing something else?

Please note that if you are using snap, you are using Linux. If you are using Windows or macOS, these instructions aren't for you.

To install Opera normally, simply open a terminal (usually CTRL + ALT +T) and type

sudo apt install opera-stable

You will see this:

And Opera should be installed.

chromium-ffmpeg-111306 can be a different number, just anything in that directory.

/snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/chromium-ffmpeg-111306/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.

I don't find this: /snap/chromium-ffmpeg/current/chromium-ffmpeg-111306/chromium-ffmpeg/libffmpeg.

I download the same deb Opera from Opera website and loads fast from cold system start is 1.6s 2s max. warm start is 1s

try remove Opera config dir in .config. and start fresh.

the extensions can't be updated, and some videos run NOT all.

how do I do this: copy the library libffmpeg from snap chromium-ffmpeg to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/ to fix the play video problem

The problem is not Opera, it is snap. If you install from Snap which by default is in Ubuntu. Cold system start, Opera snap takes 9 seconds to start. Then warm start is quicker like an normal application.

Just install the deb package from Opera website. Then must copy the library libffmpeg from snap chromium-ffmpeg to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/ to fix the play video problem.
The Opera installed from deb, warm start still way faster than snap Opera.
