How to Edit DLOG-M H.265 Video Smoothly with Premiere Pro

[Gadget Inspector]

This is a Premiere Pro tutorial showing how to edit video from the DJI Mavic 2 Pro shot in the DLOG-M color profile. In order to film in this profile you have to switch to H.265, but a lot of folks will be surprised that they can't even play the video on their PC, much less edit.

I show you how to use proxies or proxy files in order to edit DLOG-M H.265 video in Premiere Pro. HEVC H.265 is CPU/GPU intensive. I hope this helps.

What would you guys say are the minimum laptop specs to edit this high quality video? Is a good GFX card important?

Yep, you will need a good graphics card, a minimum of 8GB and at least an i7 processor (or something equivalent to that). 4-cores or more would also help. In my case, I have the required specs except for the graphics card: GeForce 745M which is just below the minimum (750M). So in my estimation, a good graphics card goes a long way to getting you smooth performance. Here's what Adobe recommends for handling H.265 (these are minimums):
