    I'm obviously lost. I followed your directions exactly but no "options", nor could I even find those bookmarks:confused: I may just have to leave them.

    Manage Bookmarks from the Bookmarks menu like others said. They are there. If they aren't, click outside of any of the folders in the left column, then they should appear in the right pane.

    You want to delete bookmarks that you don't want? Click on the folder to expand them, then you should see each individual bookmarks. Then click & press delete. Btw, the "deleted" bookmarks will go to the Trash bin. So you can undo your action if you deleted the wrong one.

    Strange I didn't any notification of the update to the thread. Anyway, I'm not sure. Both are flash video. If you have some sort of ad blocker installed in Opera, maybe try disabling that?

    Since I don't use Opera, I did a quick search on ctrl-f12, looks like that brings up the advance options? Is that what you're trying to get to?

    Disabling Adblock worked. Thanks. Weird how I don't do that in FF or SeaMonkey. Just a difference in browsers.:)

    Don't know how ABP behaves in Opera, but in FF, you can just disable it for certain web site. Click on the ABP icon, you get options like disable everywhere, disable on this page only, etc.

    In both Firefox & SeaMonkey I can watch the news with out disabling it. Obviously Opera is different so no biggie. Thanks for your help thou.

    How are you blocking ads in Opera? With the adblock addon?


    If so. I'd try removing that or disabling temporarily, and instead doing it the old fashioned way of just loading a custom urlfilter.ini.

    Then if you still can't watch what you want right click on your CBS page and choose Block Content. Select "Details..." and it will tell you what is being blocked on the current page. You may be able to make an educated guess on what the important one is and unblock it.

    I'm using the Opera adblock https://addons.opera.com/en/addons/extensions/details/opera-adblock/0.52/
    I'll try your suggestions in hopes I don't mess it up. Thanks.
