I reckon it is perhaps a front for data mining maybe?

On all my android devices i get the same random exit of full screen video streams all the time.
So I can't believe it's only happening to me if it is on every android phone or tablet I've used in the past few years.

On most platforms, but especially Android, I find video really really irritating for many reasons apart from regular freezing,
But, for this post, it is the frustrating habit of embedded video on a page randomly exiting fullscreen.
Most websearches only appear to refer to solutions for opera being stuck in fullscreen, or video on a page being stuck in fullscreen. But for this issue, it is mainly solutions for Windows devices offering solutions.

No one seems to have fixed, or have useful reasons why videos on a webpage video on opera randomly keep exiting fullscreen as frequently as every 5 minutes or so (in-between bouts of freezing which appears to effect the whole tablet -Lenovo M10 HD 2nd gen, 32gb, 2gb ram- and not just the video as tapping the screen doesn't cause appropriate controls to appear, nor the "back-button" style of function to happen, nor minimizing opera to background to close and refresh.)

From my experience with Android, it is most likely Android itself which causes this due to the rather mean and miserable processing prioritisation abilities?
However, whether inserting a potential script to solve, or finding something in the limited settings, or a combination of them, or something I'm missing in dev mode, I'm certainly not finding any solutions.

Any ideas anyone?

It doesn't seem to recognize downloadable media on most pages i visit. Uninstalling

Don't Install !!! Very Dodgy !

windows 10 64bit

CPU: AMD FX-4130

RAM: 12.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 669MHz

Motherboard: Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd. GA-78LMT-USB3 6.0 (Socket M2)

connection: Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

running Opera 41

opera will not load any pages.
i guess "offline" functions are fine. but only get a little spinning loading symbol, even after half an hour.

when uninstalling i always use iobit or revo, and both by default, set to delete all associated folders, so no remaining settings should be there to be imported. so that can't be it.

As you can see, i've got a fairly powerful wee setup for a home PC, so guess it aint my setups fault.
i can only think the issue may be with win 10, and opera?

any ideas?
i have looked at a posting with what may be a similar issue, but absolutely none of the replies seemed to solve anything, and they all went on about switching off antivirus and so on, which i refuse to do as this is windows after-all. windows seems to suck viruses in. and i don't see switching off anti-virus as a serious fix.

opera has been given firewall priveliges, and i see no reason on my end why it should have been doing this to me for ther past few months. YES! it has been doing this constantly, anytime i install it for the past three to four months solid!
i can use firefox for my basic daily needs, but there are certain things i rely on opera for that firefox can't dom (and vice versa. they are good "partner" browsers for me)

any actual FIX advice will be greatly appreciated!
