      Adobe currently maintains a NPAPI version of flash and a PPAPI version. They both have the same version number but have to be installed separately. https://forums.opera.com/post/67845 already explains what you have to do to install the right one.

      As for HTML5, yes, YouTube has an HTML5 version of the site but you have to change a setting on their site to enable it. I don't know it off the top of my head but its easy enough to google.

        Thanks Guys ... checked the links above and think I installed the correct flash player - wot a cock up ... all having the same version number and everything!

        Flash player still not good and not sync so I tried out the suggestion above and the link to youtube let me default to html5 ..... this looks a little better ..... speech now seem to sync near enough

        Hope this default sticks next time I go in?

        Thanks again for all your help on this..... it is much appreciated.... nice to talke to the experts!! 😃

          Have you tried disabling hardware acceleration for flash?

            For me the youtube sidebar is no longer working after the latest update. I click on the button that makes it show up but nothing happens, only the button changes to its "sidebar visible" state.

              Try viewing YouTube in a private window. Does that fix it?

                  I think the problem with the side bar on youtube not showing up might be the fact that I am using a laptop and the item size level of windows 8 is set to 125%. This setting is causing many problems in many websites when using opera (doesnt happen with other browsers). This is probably just one more problem to the list.

                    That is not a helpful description of the problem. You will need to give us more information if you want help. Also, have you tried the private window thing I mentioned above?
