@truden, brilliant idea and the only one that worked for me on Ubuntu 20.04. It seems the chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra package that ships with this distro is empty (as of this writing).
Great job!

Seems like any libffmpeg.so file will do - other than the one that ships with my Ubuntu Opera packages!!
I'm currently using the libffmpeg.so that came with the vsCode snap, and it seems I need to be updating the link after each Opera security update.I'd like to join the choir of people demanding Opera fix this issue.
