thank you very much for answer! glad to hear this! will continue to check new builds.

I am having the same issue. Flash looks to be outdated, I'd installed PPAPI a few Vivaldi versions ago. In my plugins page flash looks like this:

The "critical security update" link goes to a google page about Chrome. Ticking "Always allowed to run" seemed to have no effect. Going through the steps suggested in adobe's page about updating flash in Chromium-based browsers didn't seem to have actually updated my version of flash (which as you can see is an 18.x version; in adobe's get flash page the current version is listed as a 20.x version).
So from that cursory look it seems to me to be an issue with updating the browser's flash plug-in.

It is known to me. But after a restart the old order will reappear.
-
Thanx, As it happens so often here i can not use vivaldi as main browser
-
I am not sure if this a known issue but when I have a few tabs open and wlan vanishes for a few seconds (really bad connection where I am), after the reconnect vivaldi needs to be restarted before you can go on browsing.
Tried waiting for about 5 minutes but still nothing.
When you open up a new tab it doesn't load anything and when you close tabs which where already open when the connection broke you get shown only the site which where active when connection got lost.
I am not sure if this is understandable, every site regardless of the original site-content shows the content from the last active tab before loosing wlan.
Any guesses? -
Same here at www.deezer.com Flash not working anymore, i rolledback on previous version…
Another bug on previous version is the impossibility to mute a tab when there are many tabs opened. The icon doesn't appear or its not responsive when it appears (because it has not enough space probably...) -
It's working now. Thanks for replying.
-
Well, THAT sux. Is the XP on that box SP3? I know that makes a difference with some "modern" software…
-
I noticed that on the old XP tower I tested last night as well. If the internet connection gets lost, Vivaldi seems to remain convinced it is always lost until you restart it.

Wow, you must have an electric thumb . . . get it?
It's good that V is getting better and better with many machines. It's getting better with mine too, but my only gripe is that once a new page starts loading, it often kicks up my laptop's fans and then goes back to normal once the page is fully loaded. Sometimes my laptop gets slightly warm during normal use of Vivaldi even if the fans aren't in full gear, but are mostly slow. Other browsers wouldn't make my laptop that warm at all, such as Edge and Opera(new Opera).
Right now, Vivaldi is alright, because I just booted up my computer for the day and this is a new session, but this usually happens after a while of using Vivaldi for the day.
This might be a bit of an issue with either the CPU or RAM optimization. I don't know enough to judge that. If you know what it could be, let me know. I'm sure it'll get handled for the stable release anyhow.
-
Ah okay, as Vivaldi uses it's browser off of HTML5, CSS, and other web technologies.
I'm sure this can eventually be optimized to rectify it, no? Doesn't Firefox use XTHML and other web technologies for their browser?
I'll test Vivaldi using native UI.
-
Thanks!
-
I appreciate your help I don't doubt you at all or anyone else, I'm just trying to figure it out. It's frustrating when only one program give a person problems. When I get my life back together I plan to purchase a new pretty high screamer of laptop and I guess problem will be solved.
If I have time I will get a service that I subscribe to to look at it remotely by top level techs. Hopefully they won't make it worse.
-
I still have a deal breaker with your browser. I can't move a tab to a 2nd screen. Even if I have 2 copies of the browser open I can't move a tab between browsers.
-
We've been told that ATM the way Vivaldi is doing certain html5 decoding for certain things is kinda cpu-intensive. I think this is a general performance thing that will improve over time.
-
What is a dual rendering engine? As far as I was aware, this is a meaningless thing.
-
Do you see any specific sites we use more cpu on that Opera or Chrome?
TV streams using Flash use quite a bit more CPU power with Vivaldi than with Firefox/Waterfox on my laptop. Brighthouse TV & Watch ESPN for example. RAM usage seems to be about the same. Windows 7 64 bit, Vivaldi 64 bit. Thanks.
-
Firefox uses a UI composed of native elements.
There's no native UI for Vivaldi - just a native window (if you turn it on) that contains the non-native UI.
You may rest assured that the Vivaldi team will do all they can to optimize UI resource use and response. No matter what they do, however, as long as the UI is non-native, the processor will have to "think" to build the UI and any non-native elements or interactions of a web page (like menus, context menus, popups, etc.) That said , the non-native UI is what gives us potentially infinite configuration options, which no other browser will ever match.

Dove',
I hope the techies can figure it out for you! I've tried to make Vivaldi overload the memory on my old machine and it won't do it. I can totally wall the processor but memory use is asymptotic.
Maybe a new system would work for you; maybe it wouldn't. As the saying goes, "Computers make very fast, very accurate mistakes." You could wind up filling even more GB of RAM in less time than your present system can do it.
Are the hungry sites/Tabs you're working with available to the public or are they private/work related?
Does the 64-bit Vivaldi have the same 'issue' as the 32-bit version you're using?
-
Ah, cool. Do you think that it'll improve for the stable release?
