There was a problem with Opera not being able to use non-free codecs, or something similar. Currently, Opera cannot play half of the YouTube videos on OpenSUSE Leap 15.4, even though many updates have been released in the past six months. This problem was not present in Tumbleweed, except in rare cases where updates caused issues.

@burnout426 Can I use this lib from my Brave dir? Hm, can't find it there.

P.S. I replaced it into /usr/lib64/opera/lib_extra/ and it looks working

I did steps helping 5 years ago for some Opera versions installing codecs but didn't help:

sudo zypper install --from packman ffmpeg gstreamer-plugins-bad gstreamer-plugins-ugly libavcodec57 libavdevice57 libavfilter6 libavformat57 libavresample3 libavutil55 libpostproc54 libswresample2 libswscale4

@burnout426
It's regular Opera, currently in OpenSUSE TW. Modern version is: 112.0.5197.30

@leocg Feature request then

@leocg said in DIsable browser cache for videos:

opera://about

Yes, it writes: .cache/opera
But what about video/media cache only?

@leocg said in DIsable browser cache for videos:

There is no setting for it.

Where this cache is stored? There is a proposal to mount a tmpfs on /etc/fstab for that location.
~/.cache/opera/Cache/ - if it's there, can I separate the video cache only?

Hi, I have 32 GB of RAM and suppose, YouTube videos use a lot of GBS and maybe it’s better to disable the cache and use only RAM to save SSD TBW resource. How to optimize it? I got a tip to use HW acceleration but “Use hardware acceleration when available” is already true. How to disable the SSD usage for caching videos?

@leocg yeah, steps to reproduce:
enter aliexpress.com in URL tab
Opera plugin Dify Cashback tries to act without a prompt (can't disable it in settings, only logout)
aliexpress.com permanently redirects to best.aliexpress

Browser got an error:

This page isn’t working
best.aliexpress.ru redirected you too many times.

ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Needed result:
aliexpress.com loads correctly

@leocg don't understand what should I found there. Dify Cashback is the Opera default plugin and I disabled adblocks there. But yes, I should add the necessary system info:

Version:83.0.4254.19
Opera is up to date
Update stream:Stable
System:openSUSE Tumbleweed (x86_64; KDE)
