HEVC videos cannot be imported into Final Cut Pro Hi, I have just purchased Final Cut Pro, planning to use it instead of iMovie and seeing it supports HEVC video format. However, HEVC encoded videos created by AMD Radeon Software (on Win10) cannot be imported and I need to convert them using Handbrake software convert before being able to import them into FCP, which is a huge inconvenience. Anyone else has similar experience? Any ideas how to resolve this?

Video codecs supported by iPad Pro with IOS 12 Can anyone point me to a list of video codecs and formats supported by IOS 12? I’m trying to figure out if it’s possible to transcode Canon MXF 4:2:2 8 bit 305Mbs files from an XC-15 to something the iPad can edit in LumaFusion without losing the extra color information or shifting to higher compression.

HEVC setting that using Media Engine? Hi. I am reconverting videos taken into HEVC format to be put into Photos for family sharing. I am using Compressor on an M1 MacBook Pro. I would have expected Compressor to use the Media Engine in the M1 chip but this does not appear to be happening or if it is, then the performance is terrible. My encoding rate is around 5-10 times longer than the length of the content being re-encoded. I am currently using the Apple Devices 4K (HEVC 8-bit) preset. For example. I had a 4.27GB file of 7:58 minutes of HD video in AVC1 converted to a 453GB HEVC video but it took over 42 minutes. I have hundreds of videos I wan't to reduce in size for Apple Photos but this performance is not acceptable. All this video during conversion is on the internal MacBook Pro 1TB drive so there is no bottlenecking there. Why is Compressor not using the Media Engine and is there a setting that might force this?

Today apparently. New updates to OSX, FCPX, and Pro Video Codecs

No - sadly not. I'm having to use Davinci Resolve to convert them to ProRes.

No one can say what Apple is going to do in the future.

Do these play in Quicktime Player? If so, you can transcode them to ProRes in the Finder, and them import and edit using the transcoded files.
