To listen to internet radio through the media player in Opera, you may encounter issues if the plugin you are trying to download refers to Windows Media Player 12 (WMP12). If you are looking to use Windows Media Player 12 as the plugin, it's actually integrated into Windows and doesn't typically require a separate download. However, some browsers may ask for plugins or extensions to handle certain content formats. Here are a few steps you can take to potentially resolve the issue: 1. Check Browser Plugins: Ensure that your browser settings allow for the use of plugins. Sometimes, browsers block certain plugins for security reasons. 2. Update Opera: Make sure your Opera browser is up to date. Sometimes, compatibility issues arise due to outdated software. 3. Alternative Ways to Listen: Instead of relying on the plugin, you can try using online radio websites that don't require specific plugins. Streaming services like TuneIn or radio station websites often offer direct streaming without the need for browser plugins. 4. Browser Extension: Look for browser extensions or add-ons that can help with playing media or radio streams in Opera. These extensions might offer alternative ways to play media content. 5. Contact Support: If the issue persists, consider contacting Opera's support for more specific assistance with using media players and plugins within the browser. If you provide more details about the specific plugin you are trying to download or the internet radio service you are trying to access, I may be able to offer more tailored assistance.
