"Flash Player not detected" at Deezer
-
I am getting the following on Deezer.com
It works in all other browsers.
Vivaldi (14) shows as the latest Flash installed.
Cleared cache etc.
Any ideas?
-
It is already allowed.
Grr.

User Agent Switcher and faking browser identification (see extension's Permanent Spoof List).
I can not try as i have no Deezer account.Thanks but this does not work either, even when added to the Permanent Spoof List.

Thanks, GD.

@bowen192 As an other workaround, have you tried to enable the HTML 5 player?
I know that Deezer offers it, and I assume it will soon be the only one available, when Flash support is definitly stopped... However, I don't know if this HTML5 player works with Vivaldi (haven't tried it)From what I see here, select the "Settings" icon next to "My Music". Then, under "Audio", tick the box next to "HTML5 music player".
If it is not available, Deezer may be blocking it for Vivaldi. In this case, you can also check if there are some experiments in their lab, like for Firefox.If you can use the HTML5 player (which is not sure), I think it is better than spoofing user agent as suggested by @Gwen-Dragon , because it avoids artificially lowering down Vivaldi's market share and importance for sites such as Deezer.
But anyway, it does not explain why your Flash installation is not detected.

Workaround
Install User Agent Switcher
Add a new User Agent
Select Custom User-Agents...Spot on!
Cheers again, G-D.

@gwen-dragon I think that if it detects the correct user agent AND if flash is not present, Deezer automatically switches to its HTML5 player.
It's a shame, though, that it still uses basic user-agent filtering in 2018 -
