Latest update crashes on video calls

I'm reaching out about a critical issue I've encountered with Opera GX. It's the same issue as with Opera One: ever since a recent update, the browser quickly becomes overwhelmed whenever I'm on a video call, and crashes due to being 'out of memory.' Afterward, Opera GX fails to detect the camera.
This issue persists even after troubleshooting steps like reinstalling the camera device.
Notably, other browsers like Edge and Vivaldi do not have this problem, and the camera works fine in other applications.
Given that this issue started after an update, I'm concerned about the impact on usability. Opera is my #1 browser whenever it works, but this new issue is making all current versions of the browser unusable for me at the moment.
