@silverfox66 They are out of sync, so you need the libffmpeg.o from version 70.
I found the old file under /var/cache/apt/archives - chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_70.0.3538.77-0ubuntu0.16.04.1_amd64.deb.
I extracted the libffmpeg.so file from there and put it in the Opera directory (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/).

RE: Opera 54.0.2952.41: Streaming videos don't work anymoreOpera for Linux
I have had the same problem. Videos in Facebook not playing, videos on Bitchute.com not working.
Have had to start up the Brave web browser to get them playing.
I will try the method mentioned above, On Linux Mint there is no/usr/lib64/opera
directory, but there is/usr/x84_64-linux-gnu/lib/opera
. It might take me a while to try it though. -

@gloewa I agree, it would be good if these things were tested and not released if it is not working until they get it working. Every time they do this it gives the users major headaches and wasted time/productivity.

@appdevsw That link doesn't work for me. It says file not found.

@appdevsw I have used a file from here. http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-chromium-builds/stage/ubuntu/pool/main/c/chromium-browser/
I had to look up which version of Ubuntu that Linux Mint 18.3 was based on. Found the answer was 16.04, so I have used the chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_67.0.3396.62-0ubuntu0.16.04.1_amd64.deb file. (I am on a PC with AMD CPU motherboard).
It's a bit complicated when there are so many different version of the file for different versions of Ubuntu and processors. Would be a lot better if this software was tested before release. It probably wasted about 2 hours of my time. -

I had this working with Linux Mint 18.3
Could it be a new update that I installed yesterday - package file is chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_64.0.3282.119-0ubuntu0.16.04.1_amd64.deb? (There was a new version of Chromium as well.)
I am using Opera version 50.0.2762.67.
