AUDIO DOES NOT OPEN IN OPERA AND PLAY IN OPERA. <> A QT LOGO APPEARS BUT NO AUDIO PLAYS? <>
CAN another AUDIO PLAYER like VLC OR ZOOM be used AND installed as a plugin in OPERA and made to respond to audio files clicked on to open in Opera for listening?

ANY THOUGHTS IDEAS? TIPS <> 2016 Sept! WHEN I FIND AUDIO,, I CAN RIGHT CLICK AND CLICK SAVE LINK AS AND IT WILL DOWNLOAD THE FILE AND IT WILL PLAY FINE IN WMP. <> BUT I JUST WANT IT TO PLAY IN OPERA AS I BEEN USE TO IN OTHER BROWSERS LIKE CHROME OR FIREFX. THANKS 2016 SEPT.21

I have the same issue,,, SO CAN another player like VLC be used as a plugin in OPERA and made to respond to audio files clicked on to open in Opera for listening? HAS that ever been done? ALSO I have used ZOOM as a player? It plays anything audio or video! CAN Zoom be a plug in put into OPERA 36 or others? Still using XPSP3? ANY THOUGHTS IDEAS? 2016 Sept!

note as a Precaution,,, if You use XP or Vista,,,, go to services.msc,,, disable the BITS services and click on stop,,, then disable the 2 chrome updaters and hit stop,,, then Disable the Automatic Updates and hit stop. This will stop all call home ports. ALSO if you have the Manufacture calling home, then disable them too,,, WHY do all this? Because your computer was not told that the Phone line to MS was unplugged and they will forever try to call home and up date to LINKS all now gone. vista uses 50% processor till it gets home to answer,, BUT the line is dead. Flash Player 22 should stay stable! KEEP checking to see when they resolve the issue and which Version works in Opera again!!! Good Luck.

1. Uninstall Flash PPAPI plugin 23.0.0.162 from Control Panel.
2. Download Flash PPAPI plugin 22.0.0.209 from

   FOUND THIS AT ADOBE FORUM.
   WORKED FOR ME
   ADOBE LINL.... https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2208589

I went back to 22 and it is all working fine... SEE the Adobe Forums. 23 crashed Chrome and there was horror at google..thousands died using Win 10! It is a wide spread issue and it aint XP or Vista! Its all over. <> Adobe was fixing the Issue with Google. But Opera techs had no solution yet, the one I contacted said 22 was fixing the issue but why 23 was not working was Unknown. See links above.

under Ver 36,,, BE SURE you have also the latest SHOCKWAVE installed,,, Be sure all plug in are ENABLED.
Flash 22 is workin fine for me,,, IS it telling YOU it cannot load plugin? If it loads then its in and there may be other issues... MAYBE uninstall,, do fresh 36.0 then add falsh 22 and Shockwave. I was having trouble with not getting Ustreams and a news stream,, NOW all that is gone. WE all hope OPERA techs can find out with ADOBES help why some works and some do not? Keep us informed,,, SEND tips! thanks NOTE,as to rolling back system restore,,, Hmmm you might solve it,,, BUT think also what will be loss that you did between then and now and what might need to be redone... Give it some thought,,, LOTS of THOUGHTS!

smalll letter version!!!

FIXED FIXED YES!!! --> ohhh SORRY ABOUT THE CAP LOCK,,, I have bad eyes,,, BUT guess what, I FIXED MY OPERA !!!!!!!! WOW ! Seems Google ALSO was troubled BUT Adobe got on the ball and most of theirs is getting fixeed!!!!! NOW I finall got a FLASH 22,,, installed it and NOW all things are working again!!!!
SEE the ADOBE FORUM,,,at--> https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2208589 AND HERE someone has put the LINK to a FLASH 22,,, find it in the discussionsm and download it to desktop,,, BUT also get the ADOBE UNINSTALLER,,,, run it,,, THEN install 22 and say DO NOT AUTO UPDATE,,, let it finish,,, OPEN OPERA let it all reload,,, check the Plugin and see if 22 is there, YES GOOD! try it and see,,, !!! THE evidence is that 23 has issues all over and it has caused problems. this fixed it fo me,,, NOW lets see if it will LAST, good luck !

STILL TODAY, SAME ISSUE, DITES THAT HAVE A STREAM, or USTREAM THAT I USED OFTEN, ALL STILL SHOW "COULD NOT LOAD PLUGIN" WHEN i GO TO LINK.. BEFORE FALSH 22 CHANGED TO 23 IT ALL WORKED WELL.... HAVE RESTARTED OPERA 50 TIMES, REBOOTED COMPUTER, ALL STILL SAME,,,? ... BUT OTHER NEM BRAND BROWERS ALL WORK WITH FLASH 23 IN SAME COMPUTER,,,, I HAVE 2 COMPUTERS DOING THE SAME,,, BOTH RUN STEAMS AND USTREAM FINE!
*** STILL USING OPERA 36, *WINXP PRO, *NO TURBO, *ALL SETTINGS THE SAME,,, ***ONLY CHANGE WAS FLASH 22 DID AUTO UPDATE TO 23 AND NOW NO MORE STREAM,,, OH, YOU TUBE WORKS FINE, CAN WATCH VIDEO NO PROBLEMS... 2016,09,16.

FLASH 23 IN OPERA DOES NOT LOAD TO ALLOW USTREAMS SITE TO SHOW! WAS WORKING WELL IN VER 22! I then tried to do a clean install of ADOBE SHOCKWAVE PLAYER,,, ahhh when i went to Adobes site, BOING it would not do the download because,, Guess What? FLASH PLAYER plugin at Adobe thru OPERA would not load. SO the ISSUE is between Opera and Adobe 23. ALL places for getting Adobe 22 have been erased and all links disabled, and only take you to 23. So by logical deductive observations, It is broke! XXX DOA! UNOPERABLE.
