      I don't want to freaking download every single piece of media!! I can't get it on my Android to stop asking if i want to download everything. It's impossible to navigate a page.

          @leocg The browser asks if i want to download the video file in a pop up. I have to cancel it out in order to continue scrolling every single time there is any kind of media (video) on the screen. It takes 10 minutes to read a short article because it's constantly asking me what I want to do with the video file. I don't want to download any videos really. It's maddening.

                @kdub43 Any examples of pages where it happens? How exactly to reproduce the issue?

                  metv.com is one such example. The popups are so furious that it's very difficult to browse the site or even close the browser tab. Maybe what's needed is a cache option for user responses, so Cancel really does mean Cancel?

                  Incidentally, Opera Mini was originally devised a low memory, data-saving client, so we do need this feature for sites that bend over backwards to shove video streaming down our throats. More of this please, not less, but the popups are a real issue.
