I have an OBS video exported as an .mp4 using hardware GPU NVENC

Now i import this in Premiere and i export as H.264 which works (big size)

I installed HEVC video extension from microsoft store and i hoped to see when i try to export the vide in Adobe Premiere option H.265, but i cant see it

 

I deleted the cache

 

Am i missing something ?

You're not missing anything. Premiere Elements can input but  not output H.265 video.

Fair enough

I only paid 99 cents for that codec so its not a big deal

Now i have some issues with the playback of such videos
I download a sample from https://x265.com/hevc-video-files/ and the situation is like this

 

1. the h265 video plays in VLC media player

2. i can import it in Elements 2021

3. I click play , it plays a bit and then it stops

4. My RTX 2080S gpu then it shows 90% usage

5. Adobe Elements still stuck at playing

7. i close the Elements and re open it . Now Adobe elements cant play even h264 Video . The GPU still stuck at 90%

8. I close elements and when i look in taskbar the process is still there taking 90% GPU usage

 

I tried

1. install  /uninstall the HEVC codec

2. clear cache of Elements

Nothing helped

 

Any clue what is happening ?

Unfortunately, these are not easily edited files. At least not in consumer editing programs.

Even converting them with Handbrake may not solve your problem, since they'll still have those strange resolutions.

I really don't know what to recommend.
