Sequence Setup Not Recognizing Clip Format CC 2019

Question

updated to 13.0.1 recently and have discovered that even after formatting my sequence to DSLR 23.97 and inserting a clip or,
creating a new sequence from clip, the timeline is not giving me rendered and ready to go playback.
They drop in as needing to be 'cooked' (red line hovering)

the camera I used to shoot footage is the 7D

Video Codec Type: MP4/MOV H.264 4:2:0 (Full Range)

screenshot below - please help - is this the phasing out of the h.264 format?
I was hopeful I would have a little more time to work with this format as I do not have the means to a new camera just yet...
or maybe its simply a matter of something I need to tick on or off in prefs?

many tanx in advance

its set to Mercury and its greyed out

I don't know which GPU you have, but it is doubtful that 2011 iMac has a GPU that is usable with the 13.x builds and forward.

I think that has given good service for a very long time ...

Post a screen shot of your Sequence Settings (menu Sequence > Sequence Settings.

Also, right click (control-click) on one of your camera source clips in the Project Panel, choose Properties from the drop down menu and post a screen shot of the Properties for the clip.
