Get H.264 working On Opera
Right now it’s a bit complicated to get support for H.264. You can read why here: https://forums.opera.com/discussion/comment/15223803#Comment_15223803
To get support for H.264, you have to run the following commands in a terminal:
sudo apt-get install chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/chromium-browser/libs/libffmpeg.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra/libffmpeg.so.'x'
x = the Opera version. For example: libffmpeg.so.32
Note! Each time you update Opera to a new major version, you have to make a new symlink where you change the last number to the right one.
Then restart Opera. That simple folks! Try it and let us know if it works out for you or not by contacting us.
