Splitting a HEVC file can be a breeze with Descript. Follow these straightforward steps to get your scenes separated efficiently.

1) Sign up for Descript for free and log in to your account. You have 1 free hour of transcription per month. No credit card is required.

2) Upload your HEVC file to Descript by dragging and dropping it into the project window.

3) After Descript finishes transcribing, click "Show Timeline" in the bottom left and select the "Blade" tool to split your scene.
