This file requires the HEVC codec which is included with a Creative Cloud membership. To upgrade...

For some reason, Adobe Premiere Rush won't import a small H.265 clip. It gives me this error when it opens the folder where the clip resides:

"This file requires the HEVC codec which is included with a Creative Cloud membership. To upgrade to a paid plan, go to..."

 

I have purchased Rush. I have uninstalled it then reinstalled it. I have signed in and out of Creative Cloud on the Web as well as the desktop app. I still get the error.

 

Also, the thumbnail of the clip, when trying to start a new project shows "Unable to Load Preview." When I select it and click Create, I get another error message:

"The importer reported a generic error."

 

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Rush is not dead. Yes, Creative Cloud's sync was removed, but that's been the only change.

 

It's inaccurate to say that Rush doesn't save files locally. It does; in fact, this is the default. So, you can definitely still use Rush to create and save complete video projects locally on your device or computer, and many people do.

 

The loss of sync only comes into play if you want to move your project between platforms. However, the good news is there are workarounds for moving Rush files from mobile to desktop, to Windows or Mac, if needed. Then, after moving/exporting the files, Rush projects can still be opened and edited further in Premiere Pro:

I have the same issue. I'm on Windows 10. I have a creative cloud membership and the Premiere Rush plan. I also have the HEVC Video Extensions installed from the Microsoft store, although I don't think that should be required. 

 

I was able to use these types of file previously on Rush.

I likewise am having the same issue. I'm running windows 10.0.19043 Build 19043. I actually was able to work with and edit my entire video, which includes clips from multiple cameras, but when I go to render it I get the same issue. I also installed the HEVC Codec from Microsoft and it didn't help me at all.

I also have the same exact issue. Able to import the clip and trim it, add transition etc. But trying to render  /export it gives the message "This file requires the HEVC codec..." and am unable to proceed. (I have the codec, btw - cost $0.99 from windows store - i needed it to view the original file in windows media player).

 

Even worse, once i cancel the render and try to do anything else, the program always and consistently freezes.

I'm having this same issue on my Windows 11 machine. My M1 Mac mini does not give this error.

Unfortunately no. I think the weird thing may be that it's editable on the iPad version, but not the desktop version.

Hi, are you on Windows?

 

Do you know if you have the "HEVC Video Extensions" installed on Windows 10?

[It costs 99¢ from the Microsoft Store.]

 

Not sure if that will help, but it could be worth a try.
