    That's not a workaround.  HEVC is a superior video format with better compression so should be supported by Lightroom Classic.

    You wrote "Lightroom CC" but checked two product categories -- do you mean Lightroom Classic (the LR we know and love), LR CC (the new version of LR that stores its photos in the cloud instead of catalogs), or both?
