HEVC not uploading to Elements correctly

[jooorem]

Hello,

I'm a bit new to the forums so please bare with me! I'm trying to edit my videos and the file types I'm uploading to Elements are all HEVC. When I move the media into the project, the files only come up as audio files. Am I missing something? Is handbrake the answer? Will I lose my quality if I use handbrake? Thanks in advanced. !

Premiere Elements can not edit H.265 video.

You should see no loss of quality if you convert it to a more standard MP4 using Handbrake.
