@XSilverTH - Thank you for your helpful comments. I deleted a locked opera profile, and now all is well. Cheers
@air-g4p that bouncing up and down is just a plasma effect. pretty sure if the app doesnt launch afterwards it means it crashed. try running opera in a terminal to see if it outputs anything helpful.
@patryk i didnt change it one of the previous maintainers did. i didnt change it back cause it worked. i remember reading somewhere that the previous url wasnt usable anymore but im not sure
EDIT: i tried and the other link also seems to work. should i change it back? what is the difference between the two?
May I ask @XSilverTH why download link get.geo.opera.com has been replaced by download3.operacdn.com ?
Hi folks. I installed the current PKGBUILD on my 3 Arch rigs. Opera launches and operates correctly on two of them. However, on the third, immediately following launch, I only see a red Capital O
'bouncing' up and down for about 5 seconds. That icon then disappears and Opera never launches.
Any ideas if I might be missing a package, or is there some other workaround?
Thanks and cheers
Some YouTube videos, like this one, don't play. I installed the snap version, and it worked fine.

Edit: It's working after I installed opera-ffmpeg-codecs
Well lets see if this works. Added Qt6-base and Qt5-base as dependencies as namcap threw these at me as missing dependencies
DRM content using Widevine seems to be broken on Opera 107.0.5045.21, so waiting for the new version to be pushed into AUR...
