I use English because it is the international language. I don't use GMX Mailcheck because it is a bad program.

Thanks.

@burnout426 I had disabled all extensions to no avail and disabled lucid mode. What fixed mine was the last suggestion about opera://flags/#disable-accelerated-video-decode.

Thanks.

Why is there no English version? The login appears in English. I enter my credentials, but it fails and switches to a German login. What gives?

I just decided to revive a Dell Optiplex I had laying around. I upgraded it to 8GB and added an SSD. Brand new install of Windows 7 Ultimate fulled updated, decided to go with Opera as browser.

I was very disappointed to find that, when playing YouTube videos, even at 480 and standard viewing size, the video was very choppy. It looked like a slide show. There are no extensions whatsoever, no virus programs, etc.

I immediately installed Chrome and the same videos play perfectly at 1080, even full screen. So the claim about the performance advantage over Chrome just isn't true.

How about adding Steam chat to Opera?

I kinda like this browser but noticed it is very slow at caching videos on YouTube. A 2160p video looks like 144p for 3-5 seconds before the quality becomes good. This does not occur with any other browsers I've tried and I've tried a lot: Chrome, IE, Edge, Edge Chromium, Vivaldi, Avant, Firefox, Torch, etc.

No, I've used Gmail for about eight years and my messages are always filtered perfectly. Nothing goes into trash but Spam. This is an Opera thing. I've since gone back to Thunderbird and everything is okay now. No filters have been altered.

I recently installed Opera Mail and email has been a nightmare. It filters ALL my emails into the Trash folder, even though I have turned off the local filtering option. It checks for emails automatically and downloads them even though I do not have auto-checking enabled in the account.

I want to keep the emails it has trashed and get them into another reader but they have been removed from the Gmail account. Do I need to forward all these back to myself? I'm afraid if I do that, it will just instantly check the mail and download them all again. It seems to be auto-checking every second, because if I do something the warrants getting an email, it arrives immediately.

This is odd: It disappeared. I think it was actually from a webpage that was open. I frequently keep a lot of browser tabs open and I closed a lot and it is gone. I have no clue but it must have been coming from a website, perhaps like those funny cursors that some pages have.

I don't know what this but it suddenly began appearing in my Opera browser, version 22.0.1471.70. There is a green number in the upper-right over the "X" (closing) button. It isn't an FPS counter. It displays seemingly random numbers like 50, 12, 1, 17, 3, etc. whenever I hover over it. It also appears in every drop-down list when using Opera. It does not appear in any other application.

Here is a screen shot of this post area with the drop-down open. You can see the "4" there.

The only thing I've added before noticing this is Opera Mail. Any ideas?

Or maybe you have Off-Road/Opera Turbo mode enabled ?.

I'll admit I'm a newb to the browser. I looked for the Turbo option and turned it off. That appeared to be the cause.

Thanks, all.

I have been trying to find a browser that lets me move away from Chrome, yet every time I try one, things like this happen. Opera will not open many links that should launch videos. The Flash plugin is working, but for example, I was trying to view the videos about Amazon's Fire TV from their website and they would not even attempt to open. Chrome opened and ran them fine. There was another video site that didn't work either but I can't remember which one.

This is a link to the Amazon videos. The small thumbnail videos under the heading "What is Amazon Fire TV?" are the ones I'm talking about:
