VLC can play HEVC files, using h26x to decode and x265 to encode it. Since version 3.0, VLC supports HEVC hardware decoding on Windows, Android, macOS, and iOS. However, some users still receive an error message during HEVC playback, "core decoder error: Codec 'hevc' (MPEG-H Part2/HEVC (H.265)) is not supported." Sometimes, VLC delivers poor performance when playing 4K UHD HEVC content, such as video freezing, stuttering, or choppy full of artifacts. All of those are caused by missing required codec. So, extra HEVC codec download for VLC is required for better HEVC handling. This page will guide you through a list of HEVC codec packs, and also help play HEVC on VLC without installing a codec pack if needed.
VLC uses its own internal video and audio codecs, you can't add HEVC codec to VLC codec library. To play HEVC videos using VLC Media Player on your device that doesn't support HEVC, directly download HEVC codec or codec pack to your device. The VLC player does the updating process for you. Update your VLC Media Player to the latest version to get the new version of VLC player with codec updates.
