Opera 12.12 RC 2

As suggested yesterday, here is the second Release Candidate for Opera 12.12 this week. This update gets rid of one of our top crasher as well as some keyboard problems.

All the testers here at Opera will stay busy doing our internal testing, but as always we value feedback from our snapshot users. We really do not want to introduce any regression since Opera 12.11 so keep an eye out for those and let us know if you spot any.

Opera 12.12 will be a recommended security and stability update for all users.

Download
Opera Next is available via blog's sidebar and through auto-update.

Change log
  • CORE-48789 Crash on exit
  • DSK-377885 Typing/pasting in address field right after opening new tab empties address field
  • DSK-377570 Media keys may not be recognized or blocked
  • DSK-379437 Speed Dial shortcuts do not wok when using Ctrl + keypad

Opera 12.12 RC12.12 Final released

Yes yes yes yes!

One of the most annoying things for me that started in Opera 12.10.

Thank you so much for this one. One of the most annoying regressions after 12.02.

Well it works here only in Chrome, and If you look into the source you see that's it has -webkit- all over it. It written for webkit browsers! that's why it doesn't work

confirmed, happens also when disabling VPN when surfing, I have to restart opera, sometimes more than once and restart even my connection to make opera working again, it's so annoying when you have videos buffering.

Click on the 'Configure' button (upper-right corner of SpeedDial) and set the 'Zoom' to 'Manual'. Adjust the 'Zoom level' slider to match your convenience, and you're done. New tabs will be opened as fast as before. wink

Means Opera still useless...


YES!
Definitly confirmed!!! (win 8, 7, xp-sp3)
This behaviour since all versions after 12.02. What is the sense of it?!? Is it so difficult (Opera, huhu!) to notice, that such bugs are extreme annoying and redundant/needless?!?

--
The "not confirmed" one (18:43:30) seems to be a commissioned fanboy... wink
--

Apart from that still to much "crahs at closing". Its becoming less, but they are still present, to often. Since weeks (all versions after 12.02). Why ever.

Furthermore conspicuous:
all these bugs (mentioned since weeks) seems to appear more likely under win-BS, as under linux.
To all appearances, the linux-versions are actual preferential developed. why?

Please - do your homework, finitely. thx.

Confirmed on my Windows Vista SP2 machine using wireless network connection, Toshiba laptop, doesn't connect network on waking from sleep/hibernate. Workaround is to start Opera with the network connection active, I suppose. The GIF issue appears to be still fixed.

Thanks for the REWIND keyboard fix (shift+z)...can't live without that Opera feature. wink

Noticing that YouTube HTML5 full-screen view is broken. Small and medium view layout is fine, but full-screen doesn't hide page content and shows full-screen behind normal layout. (OSX 10.7 Lion)

That's been turned of by default quite some time ago. You can enable it in opera:config

I'm using Opera on an iMac at work, keying any text in any bar is very slow in this first 12.12 RC2. In fact, I face this problem since version 12.00. Very annoying.

Amazingly, this problem doesn't occur on versions of "Opera-Next" designed for Mac OXS X Version 64bits (for instance 12.10 beta Révision 1639 or Version 12.11 Révision 1661).

DSK-377570 Media keys may not be recognized or blocked

Um...
Standered usb media keys don't work in win7/8 anyways so how can you fix something that is a problem with the os it's self...
Keys like forward page, back page and volume up/down for example, never worked in win7 unless you applied the hotfix which never got put into the service pack that came long after.
