i have recorded my all gameplays in nevnc hevc but when i try to import videos in premiere pro it shows me my file is damaged. But if i use Davinchi resolve studio 16.2 it works just fine. the thing is premiere pro is way better and i am facing problem with my recording settings. i know Hevc is way better than x264. can you please guide me what settings should i change in order to get hevc recording so i can edit those in premiere pro. i attached some pics

try using MP4 if you havent already tried that, otherwise is premiere pro up to date? I have no problems bringing in my NVENC clips into premiere, however I record in MP4. Maybe try re-coding it with handbrake and see if that helps for that particular clip, but going forward try MP4 and see how that works out for you.

Sorry but as you can see I attached pictures of my settings and I was using mp4. Please see my settings and suggest me where I'm wrong

It may be Permiere Pro doesn't support hevc-encoded video. It may be it isn't built in or has an inferior implementation.
If it comes to OBS, using hevc or the ffmpeg output in general isn't a supported configuration. You're on your own. You can use it of course, and most things work of course, but if something doesn't work, you're on your own. Supported and proved to run with the maximum amount of compatibility is h.264/x264 only.

If if comes to hevc vs. h.264, hevc is 'better' only in terms of compression. Videos encoded with hevc are half the size of h.264. That's all. Quality is the same for both. If you're recording and not streaming, this is irrelevant, because if you use a quality-based preset like CQP, and not CBR, your videos are only bigger with h.264 but the same image quality. So if you're recording, just use h.264/x264! You have unlimited disk space, so compression size doesn't matter. You get the same quality and better compatibility.

And if you're streaming, you can also not use hevc/h.265, because no streaming service supports hevc. This is because of the h.265 license, which made h.265 kind of a stillbirth. Streaming providers have to pay for every connected client, if a stream is encoded with h.265. This works with paid movie streams like Netflix or Amazon video streaming, but not with free gaming/whatever streaming from services like Twitch or Youtube, so all the free streaming services are unable to offer h.265. Because of this, the AV1 codec is being developed as free alternative.
