Can't edit videos after import from iPhone 12plus to Mac OS Big Sur 11.6.2

I can edit videos on my iPhone, but when I import them onto my Mac the edit button within Photos is always greyed out. I can edit photos no problem. Any suggestions?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.15

Hi


Is your phone capturing in HDR (Provision). If so, is your mac capable of displaying HDR?

If not, you may need to switch off HDR on your phone in camera settings.
