Hi, the same thing started happening to me as well.
Be it scrolling down the site to comments section, or even pulling up Discord, when I go back video freezes for between 3 to 8 seconds.
I am on laptop, but Palx above doesn't seem to be on one.
Is there any way to disable the resource saving?

@palx I'm on laptop, so my screen refresh rate is always locked to 60Hz.
I'm also using Windows 10 pro N version, the one without media features but those have been already installed, long time ago.
I turned off what some people suggested, like hardware acceleration in video encoding/decoding and hardware acceleration for the whole browser, but nothing really helped so far.
And clean installation of Windows 10 is not something I can do at the moment. I have my university stuff to finish, so at least half a year more till I can think about doing a re-install of everything.
I will try reinstalling Opera or maybe waiting for the next update for either Windows or Opera.
Thanks for the help though!
