I have no 'import video frames to layers option', no 'video layer' option, and it is saying that mp4 is not a recongnizable file type? Anyone have a fix for this, or has it just been so long since I have dropeed videos into photoshop that I am missing something obvious?

Are you using Windows or Mac?

Have you quicktime installed?

It seems some video codecs are missing...

I'm having the same issue, "video frames to layers" does not show up under 'import' at all. And I JUST downloaded photoshop to my mac today with the sole purpose of using this feature.

I have and am still experiencing the same problem 'import video frames to layers' does not show up at all, even greyed out. Before then I had reinstalled both photoshop and creative cloud several times to the same results.

Has anyone found a solution for this? I have a new MacBook Pro M1 running Big Sur and the import video to frames feature is missing from Photoshop 23.1. I tried all of the suggestions from this thread and others (system permissions under privacy & security, etc. etc.) with no luck.
