For those that enjoy the Opera web browser, there is one feature that the devs don't maintain as well as the other big names. It involves the ffmpeg file, which is important to watch online videos. It mostly works but sometimes it doesn't. Certain videos, I believe h.264 type won't play on YouTube and other sites.
Replacing it with current Chromium ffmpeg file usually works.
In the Opera forum, Opera for Linux section, The Videos Don't Play Topic, there is a fix that so far is working for me. It's also supposed to update automatically the ffmpeg file after every Opera update. We shall see if that holds true.
If interested, please view the Github page for instructions.
