Cannot play h.265 HEVC videos

[silencer32]

I have the following:

i7-5820K
MSI GTX 1080
48GB RAM
Samsung 850 SSD

So I received a GoPro 6 for Christmas and can't play the hevc file it makes. I would think my pc should handle it? I have tried using VLC x64 with codec settings changed to divx and straight divx player then many other things to no avail.

So pretty much on VLC, I get the initial video of the image of the video for 1 second and it freezes. With DIVX player, my CPU is at 100% and the video plays then stutters (due to high CPU) all the way through the vid. I download the windows media player codec pack too which didn't solve it.

Any help will be much appreciated. <3

You can play it with Media Player Classic Home Cinema.

Or - you can install appropriate codecs:

With DIVX player, my CPU spikes to 100% and the video plays while stuttering (due to high CPU) all the way through the vid. I download the windows media player codec pack too which didn't solve it.

You probably aren't going to get an answer in a year and a half old thread. Please start a new one.
