H.265 Will not Play in Premiere
Hi, I'm using the following to transcode files to H.265 for final delivery since they can be so small and still look great. However, they play fine in VLC and even Vimeo, but Premiere Pro shows a blank, solid green image in the file instead of the actual video. Any ideas? I tried adding -vf format=yuv420p and it had no effect. -i "<SourceFileName>" -y -c:v libx265 -preset veryfast -crf 23 -c:a aac -b:a 320k -ar 48000 -ac 2 -max_muxing_queue_size 1000 "<OutputPath><PureSourceFileNameWOExtension>_H265.mp4" ᐧ

I don't recommend H.265 as an intermediate format for editing, but anyway please show the complete console output from your command. Also show the info about an H.265 input that does work: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 I CC'd you since you're not subscribed. You can check the archives to see if there are other replies from users who did not use CC: https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-user/
I'm using it as a final deliverable, never as an intermediate, I just want to be able to side-by-side it with my sequence in Premiere for quality control. ᐧ On Thu, Mar 23, 2017 at 2:58 PM, Lou <lou@lrcd.com> wrote:

Here's something that *may* be relevant. I've seen a green screen matching your description when using vlc in combination with vnc (which I know is not the right way to do it). Very puzzling. I have concluded that the media player (vlc in my case) is talking to the nvidia driver in that particular box, and the nvidia driver isn't playing nicely with vnc, so what I see on the remote display is the green screen instead of what nvidia is actually displaying. But what is the source of the green? The nvidia system? I don't know, but that's my guess. And so I'm wondering about your system's video display configuration.

You sure it actually supports HEVC?

Do you have a hevc isom file that is supported by Premiere Pro? [...]
