Multimedia content cannot be played in Opera browser.

Postby Linares » Apr 27th, '21, 11:17

I just installed the Opera browser following this procedure:

https://rpm.opera.com/manual.html (seen viewtopic.php?f=7&t=12423#p73009)

Everything works fine except the playback of the videos. When I try to play a video on Twitter, I get the message "Media content could not be played".

Similarly, when I try to play a video on Facebook, I get the message "We are having trouble playing this video."

I add that I can perfectly reproduce those two videos when I access from Mageia-Chrome or from Mageia-Firefox.

How can I solve this? :?:

Maybe ask opera support about that ? https://forums.opera.com/category/13/opera-for-linux

Maybe have a look at e.g. https://forums.opera.com/topic/48600/vi ... -twitter/5 for possible workarounds.
