I have updated to CC 2017 and cannot find the HEVC preset. I have see similar discussion and the problem was related to license issues but I have HEVC in Adobe Premiere CC 2017 and I have already tried to remove license folder to reset license unfortunately when I open Media Encoder outside Adobe premier HEVC is still missing

    Hi AndreaFar,

    As you mentioned, it is an issue with License. HEVC codecs are not available for trail versions. It seems like Media Encoder is not activated. Please try the following:

    1. Quit all Adobe apps.

    2. Close all running Adobe processes in Task Manager.

    3. Sign Out from Creative Cloud application, Quit the application(check in Task Manager for confirmation)

    4. Launch Creative Cloud app, Sign in.

    5. Launch Media Encoder & Check for HEVC codecs.

    If issue persists, Disable Antivirus, Firewall & perform the above steps.

    Please let us know the status.

    Thanks,

    Vidya Sagar.

    Sign out of creative cloud app, then launch ppro and sign back in. You should have HEVC in AME and Ppro.

    If that doesn't work, create a new user account, launch PPro, sign in, and check for HEVC.

    No luck - no HEVC after re-login.

    I tried multiple times with team sub before and individual now - it's not there. Disgusting!

    Already done and HEVC seems unlocked only when I use it in Premiere Pro. I'm a bit confused. Premiere doesn't use the same Media Encoder? Are there 2 different redundant Media Encoder?

    Hi AndreaFar,

    Premiere Pro uses the same Media Encoder when the export is queued.

    Have you tried uninstall & reinstall of Media Encoder?

    Thanks,
