Yeah this seems to be a problem in Opera right now they should fix it. Or at least give us the option to change its colour

I watch a bunch of small sized embed videos on forums and the video control tab (the thingy with the knobs and play/pause button) are always visible even if i remove my cursor from the video.

Please consider adding this feature, it is really annoying.
And yes I know I could right-click and disable controls but then again I have to right-click enable controls again to pause...

So all in all a feature where if I remove my cursor from the video would hide the controls would be nice.
