For newer versions of Ubuntu
Now that Chromium is linked totally to snapd, the code changes a little having to find the libraries inside the /snap/chromium... directory
This worked for me, idk if the "2828" directory is standard but you would have to check for yourself what's inside the /snap/chromium directory.
sudo ln -sf /snap/chromium/2828/usr/lib/chromium-browser/libffmpeg.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra/libffmpeg.soSome extra notes
Your opera installation already have a libffmpeg.so file inside the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/ directory, some people say to leave that file as, is but for accident i also replaced that file, i'll be notifying if something breaks.
Regarding the file that already comes with the opera installation. No, it doesn't work as a replacement for the one on the chromium installation. I already tried making the link for that into the lib_extra directory and didn't worked.
None of that worked for me on Linux Mint
awesome!
