Thursday 11.62 snapshot

February 16, 2012 · by Haavard

It's Thursday, and time for another 11.62 snapshot.

As you can see from the changelog it's mainly about stability, but we've also fixed an issue where window controls (resize, minimize, close) would not be available when the menu bar was enabled, and the close button on each tab was disabled.

WARNING: This is a development snapshot: It contains the latest changes, but may also have severe known issues, including crashes, and data loss situations. In fact, it may not work at all.

    1) When opera link syncs passwords, and you delete a password in one machine. Login with another machine and come back to previous machine, deleted password is back

    2) When we set store password as 'Never' it asks again once the browser is restarted. Also it asks on a separate machine.

    3) When is the gmail font fix coming ? It is irritating to always choose all the text and select normal font size

    Starting then stopping video trailer at http://www.apollocinemas.com/films-showing-carmarthen.aspx causes Opera 11.62 build 1304 (Linux) to crash. I am using the latest version of Flash 11.1.102.62.

    Same problem at mymovies.net. Not surprising because the above is a feed from http://mymovies.net. Watching whole trailer then pressing "Replay" also causes Opera to crash.

    This is not a problem in the Windows version.

    Thank you, especially for the buttons. smile
  • spectatorxSpectatorxThursday, February 16, 2012 6:07:58 PM

    You are partially right ;-) I have no any adblock system but i had enabled plugins only on demand option. I wonder, in other opera builds i have i enabled too but soundcloud works fine with plugins only on demand enabled.

    Anyway thx for a tip.

    The problem with gmail font is that google needs to disable the workaround they had in place for a problem that Opera has since fixed. Until google do this Opera has made a fix using browser.js http://my.opera.com/sitepatching/blog/2012/02/13/web-de-4chan-gmail Do a check for updates to get the new file. See here http://www.opera.com/docs/browserjs/ if you get the file with date February 13, 2012.

    I wish you ported the improved adress bar search from Opera 12 into this. It's much better than what's in 11.60 and it looks like O12 won't be out for a while.
  • Wojciech EysymonttNastyThursday, February 16, 2012 7:18:34 PM

    I noticed a huge memory leak in all latest versions of Opera: stable 11.61, 12.00 Wahoo and latest snapshots of 11.62 including this one.

    The memory leak happens even upon opening fresh, empty Opera - precisely speaking only with one external page "redir.opera.com" - that is when Opera wants to access web via proxy to load a page.

    It looks like it has something to do with authorizing in proxy and displaying the auth windows at the same time. Here is a minimal testcase .pac (proxy autoconficguration) file.
    The memory leak almost never happens if I launch Opera with "Use proxy servers" option off and turn it on later.

    What else should I report to help you remove the bug? Any memory dump with memguard?

    Here is a spectacular screenshot - the memory usage went up from 600MB to 2,73GB in only a minute after launching Opera.

    The memory leak occurs only if the IP in .pac file points to a real proxy - so Opera can connect it (and display auth window/prompt for password to proxy - visible on my screenshot). If the IP is bogus, the auth window will not display and memory leak will not occur.

    Please fix it ASAP. It is a critical bug. No-one in my few-thousand-people company can use Opera as it is totally unsusable - because of this memory leak it immediately uses whole RAM and stops displaying pages and refuses to work correctly.
  • Blaž PristavgeocitiesThursday, February 16, 2012 7:21:14 PM

    Thanks for this build, it's stable for me.
    Apple site works, QuickTime works...
    Cnet site works, well they even remove that trojan wrapper downloader for Opera that's nice.o

    Maybe only the video on The Virge site full screen controls are a bit jerky and flashing progress when in full screen, other than that great work.up

    That was a pain in the ass, indeed (my relatives were upset by it, as it had gotten into the 10.62 version); thank you very much for fixing it! And I can finally start testing again...! :-)

    Same here, it didn't fix anything. But if it's any consolation, I believe when you send your e-mail with the tiny fony, the font will be the correct size for the recipient.

    I've had several crashes on all the recent builds they seem to be related to closing the NoScripts extension panel once I've added or a removed a site. Crash reporter has been busy as a result.

    I wonder if that is why I have been having problems since I use a proxy at home. Mind does not require auth. But Opera does seem to step on other processes and often kills the sound drivers and sometimes other programs as well. Other browsers just die if they run out of memory without doing this.

    Rock paper shotgun blog is an NSL page since yesterday. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/

    It loads only if I enable content blocking. Otherwise it gets stuck, so I guess it has to do with one of their ads.

    Happens both in Opera 11.62 (1304) and Opera 12.00 (1301), Windows 7 x64 SP1.

    Does not happen in Firefox or Chrome. (no content blocking in either)
  • Bronco, DanishdanishbroncoSaturday, February 18, 2012 9:09:13 AM

    Hi all,

    I am running the latest 10.62 snapshot, and I'm pretty happy with it, but I have a question related to blocking content, if possible on a permanent basis: I have noted that on some websites (one in particular: www.betanews.com), the home page keeps loading like forever, and I think it's related with some content I have no use for, namely all the "Like" and "Share" buttons that are sitting at the bottom of each article preview. Is there a way to block that kind of content? I don't have a Facebook account, and I never tweet, so I really have no use for this.
