I got a problem with Opera in the past few days. I cant watch youtube vids anymore... when i open a video it shows " Old Flash? Go upgrade! " So i click the link and install the latest flash player but its still the same.

Youtube vids work on firefox,chrome and even the older 10.01 version on Opera but not on the latest version wtf !

Can someone help me... Ive uninstalled and tried the older version like i mention above and its works perfect but then i reinstall the newest and its not working again... Can i fix this or i need to switch on the older version of Opera??

I have the same problem since on of the 10.2x versions. Since I'm too lazy to fix it, I simply use FF for youtube.
You should not use an older version permanently, since then you won't get the security fixes. Using an up-to-date browser is probably the most important thing you can do to keep your computer virus free.

It has nothing to do with flash version, this is apparently a way of dissuading people from using browsers that block unwanted ads and pop-ups. You may try this solution to see if it helps: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?tid=46dd241356fbad51&hl=en

it's not the version problem afaik. Here's a workaround found on google.
copy this into notepad, save as a javascript (.js) file.

+ Show Spoiler +

// ==UserScript==
// @name youtube opera 10.51 fix
// @namespace ftf.at.ua
// @description lol, looks like opera have problems playing video from youtube. or youtube hates opera... this scripts fixes (or supposed to) this little problem
// @include http://*.youtube.com/watch*
// @run-at document-end
// ==/UserScript==
(function(){
var array_merge = function(arr1, arr2){
if((arr1 && (arr1 instanceof Array)) && (arr2 && (arr2 instanceof Array))){
for (var idx in arr2) {
arr1.push(arr2[idx]);
}
}else if((arr1 && (arr1 instanceof Object)) && (arr2 && (arr2 instanceof Object))){
for(var idx in arr2){
if(idx in arr1){
if (typeof arr1[idx] == 'object' && typeof arr2 == 'object') {
arr1[idx] = array_merge(arr1[idx], arr2[idx]);
}else{
arr1[idx] = arr2[idx];
}
}else{
arr1[idx] = arr2[idx];
}
}
}
return arr1;
}
function DO(){
var swfc=window.yt.getConfig("SWF_CONFIG");
var args=swfc.args;
var flashvars='';
for(i in args){
flashvars+=(flashvars?"&":"")+i+"="+escape(args[i]);
}
var embed=document.createElement("embed");
var attrs=array_merge({"flashvars":flashvars},swfc.attrs);
attrs=array_merge(attrs,swfc.params);
attrs.type="application/x-shockwave-flash";
attrs.src=swfc.url;
for(i in attrs){
embed.setAttribute(i,attrs[i]);
}
var div=document.getElementById("watch-player");
div.innerHTML="";
div.appendChild(embed);
}
window.addEventListener("load",DO,0);
})()


Save it somewhere, then go to youtube, right click somewhere and select edit site preferences. Go to scripting, and for User Javascript Folder choose the directory where the .js file you made is saved.

edit: beaten, with a smaller script : \

Found an easier solution on the opera website:
Just add http://s.ytimg.com/yt/jsbin/www-core-new-vfl160018.js to the AdBlocker.

1.Go to youtube
2.Right click
3.Select "Block content"
4.Select "Details"
5.Select "add"
3.Paste this -> http://s.ytimg.com/yt/jsbin/www-core-new-vfl160018.js
4.Press "Close"
5.Press "Done"

I don't get how this is supposed to help from Google/YT's point of view though.

How are most users going to know that they're supposed to get rid of their adblocking to use youtube normally? All it says is to upgrade flash, which does nothing.

They don't want you just to turn off your adblock, they want to make you believe that your current browser is not capable of displaying properly something as trivial as Youtube videos. And since Yotube has become so widespread that not being able to use it will be a major nuisance, most people would switch to a browser that has no problems with Youtube (and purely incidentally is produced by Google) - Chrome.

Thanks to MasterOfChaos.. yours was the best and easiest solution.. and yeah it is very shady if google was behind this we all know how people now jump from browser to browser so easily. If a problem such as this appears in a mayor website, then people just change browsers.

I only changed from chrome cause it disapeared cause of a virus..

i found out that it wasent a browser problem cause i got here and saw some embedded vods so then i started to be suspicious.

thanks for the fix

thanks for the fix, my opera went down last night, since then I was using a combo of IE and watching embeded videos and videos in the uploaders channels, for some reason those worked normally.

While we're on the topic of problems with Opera, does anyone find that GMail runs really slow on Opera?
