    Windows 11 HEVC/H265 problems


    I'm unable to load any H265 videos into RaceRender on Windows 11. This includes videos from any source, such as GoPro, https://test-videos.co.uk/bigbuckbunny/mp4-h265, or videos converted to H265 with ffmpeg. I get the error message shown below. The problem does not happen on an older Windows 10 system.The Microsoft HEVC codec has been paid for and reinstalled several times, with reboots in between. The OS is up-to-date.I'm aware of all relevant information on answers.microsoft.com, including https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/is-hevc-still-supported-on-windows-11/9f34f

    :)

  2. microsoft converter HEVC to H265.

    Hi, I am very new to torrenting so forgive my ignorance. I search for a particular title but often only HEVC format is available. I have downloaded the movies with Qbittorrent and VLC. I load the movies onto my USB and connect it to my tv. Up comes a message that HEVC format cant be played.

    Apparently I need to convert HEVC to H265 which I can load onto my USB and it will then play on my tv.

    I have looked at several converter apps on Microsoft but have no idea which ones will do what I want and which ones are any good. I run windows 10 and Edge.

    I would so welcome advise please. TIA. John

    Computer HEVC Compatibility

    Hi Lukey,

    HEVC (H265) compatibility has nothing to do with the specifications of your hardware - though you do have a nice system

    HEVC (H265) compatibility is simply a codec that you can install to enable you to play that type of video. If your Windows 10 is up to date, then you will be able to play HEVC video with no problems . ..

    Windows 11 HEVC/H265 problems

    PLEX - stop transcoding for 6CH HEVC H265 video 1080p

    Hi there

    Using Plex for 1080p with 6Ch and codec HEVC H265 transcoding always seems to take place and video pauses frequently even on megafast Network connection.

    If I drop the audio to 2CH then it works fine seems PLEX has problem with the AUDIO rather than the video codec --strange though.

    It all works at 720p whatever audio but I do prefer the full 1080p on decent TV's.

    Is there any way to either "Pre-transcode in advance" or fix the audio problem -- 2Ch is OK but full 6 Ch is great for some movies.
    Using HEVC H265 saves HUGE amounts of disk space at 1080p and will be even better for 4K UHD TV too.

    Cheers
    jimbo
