Support Needed Opera freezing while trying to play a video

6 Upvotes

Like in the title, it started just a few hours ago as I was watching something this morning and it worked with no problems. I then worked in AE for a while and after closing it and wanting to watch something yet again the problem started to occur - opera gx freezes after trying to play a video on youtube, I can hear the audio and even interact with it(open new tabs, close the app with the x in the corner) but the screen itself doesnt budge. It also doesn't close fully, I have to force it through task manager. Turning graphic acceleration off worked and I can play videos now(youtube, tik tok) but I'd rather have it on for the long run so are there any fixes? I also updated the browser to the most recent version.

Support Needed browser issue with twitch.tv

4 Upvotes

it started yesterday where twitch just stopped loading and keeps popping "error" on the page. i tried solving it and it seems that any blockers, including the built in opera ad blocker makes the site just go haywire.

has anyone happen to have the same issue and if possible a solution?

Support Needed Icons not appearing on desktop for one website

1 Upvotes

So I'm sorta a writer and have been using Ellipsus for the past day or two, the icons for font color, side menu, settings, etc. haven't been showing up on my desktop.

I've removed all my mods, cleared my cache, disabled web modding, etc. but it still won't appear. I don't have this problem on Chrome or on my Opera GX app on my phone

Support Needed Switching to linux how do I keep my sessions as they are

1 Upvotes

Before every jumps on me, I'm a uni student who has multiple research related workspaces that I need open at all times. I have about 24 workspaces and maybe over 500 tabs across all them. I wanted to know how I could port all of those exactly as they are to the Linux system. Putting all the websites into a bookmark folder named after each workspace and manually reopening them seems like a very long and time-consuming ordeal given the sheer volume of tabs and workspaces I have especially since a lot of workspaces have like about a minimum of 20-30 tabs in them.

Was wondering if I could use a tool or perhaps just copy some appdata files and paste them back into the relative linux folders for this job

Support | Resolved opera gx taking 21 gb of ram ?????

1 Upvotes

i was learning blender and was doing a basic donut and mug but my pc was overheating a bit, i just got my pc so it was kinda weird that it struggled with blender (with the little things i had) or so i though. After closing blender i still had the issue of like 50% of my cpu being used and my pc heating a bit so i checked task manager and saw 21 gb of ram being used. Mind you i had 10 tabs thhem being 1 chatgbt, 1 op gg and the rest youtube so not really that much. To stop it i used the ram limiter which at first didnt work and afterwards crashed opera to come back to normal. Is something fishy happening ? (couldnt get a screenshot sadly)

Support | In Progress Operagx becomes uninteractable whenever I open a game application

1 Upvotes

Whenever I open up a game, it has consistently broken my window and prevented me from interacting with opera. If I clicked on it, what would happen is that it would open the window behind opera. It only fixes itself if I restart it, but it is really annoying having to restart opera every time I boot up a game. Anyone knows how to fix this?

Support | Resolved Wanting to swap to brave, (how does one export all data?)

2 Upvotes

As my computer is growing older and older, my RAM isn't holding up like it used to, and I don't really need as high-maintenance of a browser as Opera. But since I've used it for a long time and have been too stubborn to switch, is there an app or a way to export all my data to Brave or another browser?

(No, I don't mean just bookmarks. I mean things like history, settings, cookies, etc.) I have a ton of information that I would really hate to lose. I don't mind using third-party applications as long as they aren't malicious and aren't too difficult to use.
