Are there people on this forum who use the Opera browser on a daily basis ?
Today I was wondering if it makes sense to install Opera instead of Chrome.
I used to use Opera as Chrome was sluggish.
How is it today

Spoiler: :P

Still going strong on my machine and even use it as the main browser on my phone.

From a pure technical perspective it delivering features other browsers love to copy, so their developers that's located in Europe are for sure doing it right. The Chinese " Bogeyman " is impossible to escape as they do have the most share of stocks, but if one deep search on that part it's easy to understand the business and tax evasion reasons that made Opera possible to be introduced on the NASDAQ stock market. I understand why people left them and extra on this forum, but their still alive and kicking and have done fine with for example their GX version that you can find a few threads on in the Opera section.

Today I noticed in Opera that I have a problem playing some videos.:



The sound is normal and the picture is as in the picture above
They don't all reproduce that way.
What could be the cause?

 

[M4RT1NE2]

Disabling the option helped:

Use hardware acceleration if available

 

[SeriousHoax]

Disabling the option helped:

Use hardware acceleration if available

Everything will be handled by the CPU now. So expect high CPU usage which will consume more power.

 

[M4RT1NE2]

It's hard to say.
By the way, I wonder why not all videos (YouTube) have this playback error with acceleration enabled.

 

[amitkumargiri]

Stable version 67.0.3575.53 is now available thru your browser updater.

Changelog and blog link

To keep things sane, I thought to consolidate all Opera updates into one thread. Hope this'll be OK.

Opera used to be my liking browser , i don't know why I feel it is loosing it's former charm.....

I had Chrome, FF now Opera.
For me Opera is a very good browser (especially speed)
I am not criticizing other browsers at this point.
