RE: Can't play videos after updateOpera for Linux
@burnout426 Thank you for all the information. That's very kind of you.

Unlike all other important browsers Opera has no window-title.

I am using Manjaro KDE
My commandline looks like this:
run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=opera --file-forwarding com.opera.Opera @@u %U @@ -

RE: Can't play videos after updateOpera for Linux
@alexs Are you kidding me? the linked opera-posting is from 2018!
Till few days ago all was as it should. The last update broke the video-functionality.If opera is not able to fix it, its time to change to another browser. As simple as that.

RE: Can't play videos after updateOpera for Linux
