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

[Macgeekppc]

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?

Yes, it definitely seems strange.

Calling @petergaraway and @caroline_edits from the Premiere Rush team... Would you please be so kind as to give customers an update on what's happening with this issue from the Adobe side? Thank you!

Hi all,

Any news maybe?  Do Premiere Rush plans still not support HEVC?

Thanks

Does anyone have an alternative to Premiere Rush they can share?

I opened a ticket with Adobe for this issue and it was acknowledged as a bug with a patch 'releasing soon', but the instructions I got were to use Handbrake to transcode my video first. If I knew how to use something like Handbrake effectively I feel like I wouldn't need something as simple as Rush to do what I need to do. 

I got some stuff I'd like to edit and upload to YouTube, but I'm a stuck. I don't know how to get Handbrake to output something with the quality I can bring into Rush from the get-go when it's working like I expect it to.

How long ago did you open a ticket or get the response that a patch was coming out soon?

[intercede007]

Last week - May 17th. 

[Macgeekppc]

I do hope it is soon. Looks like it's been almost a year since my original post!

This is infuriating!!  It took me 2.5 hours to edit all of my media together and now I am going on 4 plus hours just trying to figure out how to save it!!!  Saving it should be the easty part!!  I've tried every suggestion I have found and none of them work.  I have since upgraded to Premiere Pro hoping that would help and it does not.  I even upgraded plans to ensure I had the most adobe offers, but nothing will work at all.  This was an important presentation and now it appears I have to abandon it.

[intercede007]

I reached out to Adobe support today on Twitter trying to get attention on this, hoping for an answer about when a patch may be available. 

[intercede007]

I was able to fix this by cancelling my Rush subscription. Once that billing period ran out and the inclusion with the Photography package kicked in exports work again.

Found a solution if you don't care about uploading your file to the cloud. 

From the Home page, click Project Options (3 dots) of the project you want to edit, then click Turn Sync Off.

Wait for the icon to change from the PC and cloud, to just the PC.

Then close Premiere Rush so that it applies the setting. Open Premiere Rush, then open the project. You should now be able to add HEVC videos to the project because it is no longer using the cloud.

Like this reply if it works for you so others can see it!

[Shervin5E70]

Disregard the above. When I try to share/export the video, the HEVC files come up black in the new video.

[Shervin5E70]

OK I GOT IT WORKING! 

So I downgraded the version to 1.5.50 but it said my project was edited in a newer version and it wouldn't open. So then I installed version 1.5.54, shared/saved the to my local destination (my computer hard drive) and it worked!

[serotonin001]

After doing a bunch of trial and error, getting myself all frustrated I about gave up.  Tried support and they had me log out and log back in again WHICH WORKED! 🙂

I hope this simple tip helps save someone some time/frustration!

[serotonin001]

Yeah it worked for a whole 15 minutes and we are back to the same issue again, sorry 😞

After frustrating for a while over this issue, I reached out to Support and officially got the answer that I had been slowly dawning through this thread and clicking various subscriotion links.

The answer, at least for me, seems to be that I am using the free version of Premier Rush, and it does not support HEVC.

This despite the fact that my CC Photography 1TB plan claims to include Premier Rush. Yes, confirmed Supprot, it does: the free version. 

This is highly confusing and frustrating on Adobe's part. And I do realize that some of you have an honest-to-goodness Premier or All Apps subscription and still get the error. I am just speaking to those who, like I, have been led to believe that our subscription include Premier Rush when it really does not. It says that it does, but it does not. So it's not a technical issue, it is a marketing/documentation issue.

Now, a more interesting challenge is: how to add a (paid) Premier Rush subscription to my CC Photography 1TB subscriotion. The support person said that an account management team will reach to me to solve this and asked me for a good phone number and time of day for them to call me. At that point, I was so disappointed I just dropped the chat. Apparently, if I were top opt for this option, it would not be straighforward and would require a call. 

I am currently trying to learn DaVinci Resolve. It is more powerful than Premier Rush, and free, but it is more sophisticated, more like Premier Pro. Premier Rush has a lot going for it. I am still deciding. 

[intercede007]

A bit ridiculous that this is still a problem for sure. I thought I had it fixed by ending my Premiere Rush subscription and letting the Photoshop subscription take over which comes with Rush now. Nope, was only temporary relief.

I also have this issue and having a paid subscription with Rush it asks me to upgrade this is frustrating

[Droningon49]

For me, the solution was to sign out of my adobe account within the Adobe Premiere Rush program itself rather than the Creative Cloud App.

Open Rush.
Click "Help" in upper right corner.
6th option down "Sign out... (username)."
Close Rush.
Open Rush.
Sign in using your Adobe account information.
Problem solved.

I think signing in from the app itself cleared whatever account issue it was having with Creative Cloud.
Hopefully this helps others.

[ProDesignTools]

Interesting, thank you for sharing. Could it be that simple? Adobe says that signing in/out anywhere will sign in/out everywhere. So that would indicate a glitch if signing out & in had to be done specifically (only) from within Rush itself.

What version of Rush are you running, and on which version of operating system? Also, what paid Creative Cloud plan(s) do you subscribe to? It would be very helpful to know those answers as well. Thanks!

[Matthew27214294bi7i]

It works!

[christianm1989]

It worked for me! I have version 2.6. Thanks

[teryakiwok]

How many years and this MAJOR bug still isn't fixed?! Wow.........

[defaultqi8nplwh12nr]

[Macgeekppc]
