I am trying to open a video file taken on a EOS R7 in Premiere Rush. I get the message that it needs a HEVC codec which is only available with a paid plan. I do have the photography plan so this should be available. Can anyone help please.

 

Thanks

Hey Tim, @timh4514630,

Thanks for the note.

The Photography Plan does not give you a premium subscription to Rush. Sorry. You have the Rush "Starter" version, which does not include premium features like HEVC support. You would need a different plan for that, like Adobe Express, Creative Cloud All Apps, or a Premium Subscription to Rush itself.

 

This is a common misunderstanding, so, I apologize for that!

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Hello Tim. I have the Photoshop account which includes Premiere Rush, but I'm still getting the" HEVC  codec. You need a paid account" message?

This also is a new issue for me. I've been making videos successfully with Premiere Rush for a few years now. I just started seeing this error message recently. Whats going on? I've also read through a number of these threads and can't seem to find an answer.
