Way back on June 10, 2018, user murrubioflamenk asked:

Welp, it's September 2020 now, and I just came to the forum today with the same problem that murrubioflamenk had two years ago: "HEVC" or "H.265" does not appear among the options available in the "Convert & Stream" dialog » "Video codec" tab » "Codec" pop-up selector. In my case, I'm using VLC v3.0.11.1-Intel64, on a 2018 Mac mini, running macOS Catalina v10.15.6-19G2021.
Is there a good reason why H.265 still "is not enabled in the HMI yet" more than two years later? I would think that HEVC encoding would be a very frequently-used feature. Thanks.
I recently discovered that I can use vlc as an encoder and I would like to convert some 1080p that I have in x265 HEVC. […] when I try to convert a movie to h.265 it does not give me the option to use that codec […] Can I use VLC to convert h.264 to h.265?
At that time, dfuhrmann gave the following reply:
x265 is not enabled in the HMI yet. If you want to use it, you should use the command line interface of VLC for now.
