I am using Chrome OS Flex with the latest stable version as on 6th of September, 2023. After setting up the Linux container, I downloaded the Linux version of Opera browser from their website as my secondary browser. I went to watch some live videos on youtube but it showed me "Your browser can't play this video" but google chrome could play the video without any problem. I visited some other websites to watch live videos and it showed the same thing "Your browser doesn't support the playback of this video" but again google chrome was to able to play those videos without any problem. My Opera browser is totally up to date. I am new to this forum, can anyone help me?

@vbnvbn Nope. It seems the opera browser is not fully supported by Debian 11 on Chrome OS/Flex

@leocg I followed the process yesterday and then the opera refused to open like it crashed.

@leocg The Linux on chrome os runs on a separate virtual container and it is based on Debian 11 bullseye, everything seems to be working fine for opera except live videos, why is that?

@ejcv I just gave up on opera, I don't know why the developers didn't fix this issue without users having to tweak codecs and all to get live videos working, I am new to linux and have no knowledge about coding and terminal works. I wish it worked out of the box.

@sorenfeodor After following the instruction Opera failed to open.

@sorenfeodor Did not work as Chrome os flex is not a fully Linux distro where snap is installed. The linux runs on a separate container like a virtual machine.
