Guys, i'm tired of this thing.

I have unistalled Opera and Vivaldi and will stick to Google Chrome, FF and Palemoon.

Thanks anyways.

No, Vivaldi can't play it either.

I've already imagined that. It's because Vivaldi, like Opera, doesn't have its own h264 video decoder so they depend o the OS to play those videos but somehow, even with the OS being able to play the video natively, they can't play it.
Do you have 32 or 64 bits Opera?

I use Opera 43.0.2442.1144 (PGO) 64-bit version and Vivaldi 1.7.735.46 (Stable channel) (32-Bit)

No, Vivaldi can't play it either.

OK, I did now enable it, cleaned all history data with CTRL + SHIFT + DEL and restarted Opera.
Then played the video again.
No difference.
The video is still black, only the sound works

Did you try cleaning the cache and media cache?

Yes, FireFox, Google Chrome and Palemoon (all without the Flash Player) can play the video fine.

Did you check with Vivaldi or any other Chromium based browser that not Chrome?

I've cleaned the cache with this key combination, and additional also cleaned it with CCleaner. Opera is there under applications.

I will try Vivaldi and see how it goes.

Hmm, this is very strange.
You said in your OP that Firefox plays the video fine, without Flash installed.
From my tests, this seems to indicate that Firefox is playing the video using HTML5 if Flash is not installed, although it appears to use Flash as the first option if it is installed.
From your tests, it does appear as if the HTML5 player is working correctly in your Opera installation, but it won't play that particular video correctly, even though it has presumably defaulted to it as the Flash player isn't available.
Could you install the PPAPI Flash plugin temporarily just to see if Opera does then play the video?
You can download it here and you can always immediately uninstall it after the test if you don't want to keep Flash on your system!

Now with Flash installed, it works!
But i don't wan't the Flash-Player on my computer, so i will uninstall it.

I hope Opera programmers can find the solution and fix this HTML5 problem.

Yes, FireFox, Google Chrome and Palemoon (all without the Flash Player) can play the video fine.

Opera plays it but there is only the sound and the video stays black.
IE cant play the video at all, it shows just an error message.

Video Decode: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable

• Video Encode: Hardware accelerated

This may be a problem when running h264 videos. See if enabling opera://flags/#ignore-gpu-blacklist makes any difference.

OK, I did now enable it, cleaned all history data with CTRL + SHIFT + DEL and restarted Opera.
Then played the video again.
No difference.
The video is still black, only the sound works.

Go here and see what formats your browsers support.
It's a bit out of date now, but should show if the browser supports HTML5 video.
It's possible that Opera is trying to play the video using HTML5, but is failing and not dropping back to the Flash player.

Opera plays all 3 videos fine, all with sound and video.

IE can only play the H.264/MP4 (with sound and video).

Did you check the test page I linked to in an earlier post?
Does the first video (H.264/MP4) play OK in Opera (and IE for that matter)?

Opera plays all 3 videos fine, all with sound and video.

IE can only play the H.264/MP4 (with sound and video).

All other browser don't have Flash either. But they can play this video.

Check opera://gpu/ to see if there are any error message under 'log messages'. Also check what it says about video decode/encode.

Video Decode: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable

• Video Encode: Hardware accelerated

Log Messages
GpuProcessHostUIShim: The GPU process exited normally. Everything is okay.

The most annoying:

With Opera i have at least sound, but my IE 11.0.9600.18537 can't play the video at all (no sound, no video).

but it works in Media Player....
I don't have any codec pack installed but the video works fine.
BTW, K-lite or any other may help.

Installed now K-Lite Full Codec Package and rebootet.

But it didn't help either.

Still same problem.

And about that!?

Weird if IE has problems too.

I created new profile, i followed your advice.

But it didn't help.
The sound is there but no video (it's still black).

With Opera i have at least sound, but my IE 11.0.9600.18537 can't play the video at all (no sound, no video).

Yes, Windows Media Player can play this video without problems.

Did you ever installed any codecs? Or does it plays natively?
Also, if you try to play the video directly in Opera, does it play?

I never installed any codecs.
And when i play it directly in Opera, there is only sound and the video still is black.

If you download the video and play it in Windows Media Player, does it play fine?

Yes, Windows Media Player can play this video without problems.

Try checking opera://media-internals/ while playing the video to see if it gives you any hint.

Here is the LOG File: (media-internals.txt)

Try checking opera://media-internals/ while playing the video to see if it gives you any hint.

Here you can download my
"media-internals.txt"
and lok for yourself. I don't understant any of it, but maybe you can see the problem.

Guys, i've tested the video also now with my IE 11.0
He can't play this video either!
I get this message:
"The video could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported: http://www.fail.to/videos/7601ae81c2156d11a11911ccf802a4e3.mp4undefinedundefined"

In the Internet, there is a service where you can test different OS with different browsers.

That's the site:
browserling.com

I set there: OS windows 7
That are the results:

Internet Explorer: fails (same error message as above)
FireFox: successfull played
Opera: fails (same error message as above)
Chrome: successfully played

Yes, i've tried and deactivated hardware acceleration in Opera.
Doesn't change anything, the problem still exists.

Try checking opera://media-internals/ while playing the video to see if it gives you any hint.
BTW, your graphic card driver is up to date?

Yes, i set up my system few days ago. It's completely new with newest drivers.
OS: Windows 7 64bit icl. all updates, Graphic Card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3450 with newest driver from amd.com homepage

No, and i won't install the FlashPlayer or the Plugin.

Well, at least here that page seems to use Flash.

All other browser don't have Flash either. But they can play this video.

Chrome brings its own Flash.

Only Opera fails.

Did you try disabling hardware acceleration in Settings?

My FireFox has no Flash installed. And i've deactivated Flash on Chrome.
And both browsers can play these videos, without flash.
And my Palemoon browser has also no Flash, and it can play these videos.

Yes, i've tried and deactivated hardware acceleration in Opera.
Doesn't change anything, the problem still exists.

You may try cleaning site settings and / or with a User agent switcher extension.
https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/user-agent-switcher-5/

I've cleaned everything since the installation: all browser history, cookies, site settings etc.
With: ctrl + shift + h

Then played again these two videos. Nothing changed, it doesn't work. I can only hear the sound.

Then i installed the User Aent Switcher. Changed to windows, Linux , Chrome and Firefox. All combinations.
And always cleaned the browser history (With: ctrl + shift + h) when switching to another user Agent before playing the videos.
Here i checked then my User Agent every time: http://mybrowserinfo.com/

I can only hear the sound, but video still is black.
So it didn't work either.

This video doesn't work either, i can only hear the sound, but the screen stays black:

Once again, other browsers play it without problem.
