Q: "Hey, I wonder if you guys can recommend a specific HD video editing software that can import 4K 60fps HEVC files without converting. I'm using Windows 10 built-in Photos app, and it's a pain in the ass to always have to convert them to H.264 first in order to edit them afterwards."
A: Windows 10/11 Photos app incorporates a simple Video Editor as a decent alternative to the discontinued Windows Movie Maker. However, due to the lack of HEVC video codec installed, you'll see an error message that says "You need an extension to use this file" when you add your HEVC files to the Video Editor. You have to pay $0.99 for HEVC Video Extensions on Microsoft Store to make it work.
But even then, the Windows Video Editor doesn't work well for HEVC videos with high resolution and frame rate, and only let you output a 1080p H.264-encoded MP4 video，and I bet that's not what you really want. In the following content, I'll recommend an entry-level HEVC video editor for simple editing, and share some infos and tricks on how to use it.

Open the "Merge" window and press the middle "Merge" button to create a "Pack 1" timeline in the below section. Move those HEVC files from "Video List" section to the "Pack 1" timeline. Then drag and drop those H.265 video to re-arrange the order. Then hit the bottom "Merge" button to go back.
Note: You can create multiple packs like Pack 2, Pack 3, etc. to re-arrange and join different HEVC files, which is an efficient feature that most other HEVC video editors don't have.
Click on the "Batch compression" icon on the bottom of the program to activate the feature. Once the icon becomes orange, move the slider along the bar towards the right to batch compress your H.265 video files.
Click on "+" icon next to "T Disabled" section to add subtitles to H.265 movie permanently (both .srt and .ass subtitle formats are supported). You're allowed to add either multiple soft subs (only supported by MKV, MP4, and MOV format) or a hard sub to a movie.
