@burnout426 I did as leocg said, I just ran it in a private window, and it's fine. So I suppose it's the addons, or something. In other words, it's resolved

And if you still wonder, I run
Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.18362.145 64-bits
with
Opera Version:60.0.3255.151

stefanw1337

@fonm Exactly the same answers. Any more ideas? I need to try the non-snap version I suppose.

stefanw1337

@burnout426 I mean, even after installing snap:
$ sudo ls -lR /usr/lib/opera | grep widevine_config.json
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/opera': No such file or directory

$ sudo locate /usr/lib/opera | grep widevine_config.json

$ sudo find . widevine_config.json | grep widevine_config.json
find: ‘widevine_config.json’: No such file or directory

stefanw1337

So we're back here again, aren't we?

I have no folder:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera

I couldn't find any widevind_config.json, so I made one, and tried to follow the guide made waay back on these forums, and read the comments and really, it's kinda messed for me right now.

Does anyone have an updated guide?

Running
Xubuntu 20.04 and
Opera 68.0.3618.125

And I have Chrome, and DRM works there.
Opera devs, please pay attention in class, and fix this once and for all!

stefanw1337

@leocg Chrome, yes.

@kalebesouza said in Widevine and Opera:

@stefanw1337 To fix this on new Opera installations just copy lib: libffmpeg.so to the Opera directory.Terminal command: sudo cp /usr/lib/chromium-browser/libffmpeg.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/

$ sudo cp /usr/lib/chromium-browser/libffmpeg.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/
cp: cannot stat '/usr/lib/chromium-browser/libffmpeg.so': No such file or directory

$ find . libffmpeg.so | grep libffmpeg.so
find: ‘libffmpeg.so’: No such file or directory

stefanw1337

@fonm I mean, good for you?

$ locate /usr/lib/opera|grep -i ffmpeg

And for the sake of sudo:
$ sudo locate /usr/lib/opera|grep -i ffmpeg

Nothing. This with both snap and non-snap installed.

stefanw1337

@leocg I know, which is what I did to install the non-snap version(dpkg). But shouldn't the easier option have the most mainstream options and choices for the "normal" more casual user? You know, those new to linux?

Edit: seems more software is weird on snap. For instance Spotify.

stefanw1337

@leocg Snap is the regular version, for the everyday user? At least, that's what the store installed for me. The other store was upgraded at some point to the "Snap Store".

I haven't been testing that much, as you can see the folders are the same as before. But when I went to check for DRM, it said it had widevide, so I suppose it's fine.

stefanw1337

@burnout426 I mean, even after installing snap:
$ sudo ls -lR /usr/lib/opera | grep widevine_config.json
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/opera': No such file or directory

$ sudo locate /usr/lib/opera | grep widevine_config.json

$ sudo find . widevine_config.json | grep widevine_config.json
find: ‘widevine_config.json’: No such file or directory

@fonm

Paths
Install: /snap/opera/76/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera (also I tried to write and copy here, read-only, even with chmod 777 and sudo nano)

Profile: /home/user/snap/opera/76/.config/opera

Cache: /home/user/snap/opera/common/.cache/opera

$ locate /usr/*/opera
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/opera

$ locate /opt/*/opera

$ whereis opera
opera: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera /snap/bin/opera
