CRM files won't convert to equirectangular projection for 180 video

Hi all...
Just got the R5C with the fisheye lens and finally met all the requirements to shoot in 8k60 for VR180... unfortunately, it's the only format I'm unable to get converted even though I bought the EOS VR plug-in for Adobe Premiere pro.  Here's all the info... hope you can help.
In any other resolution/fps (even 8k30) when you bring the file into Premiere it sees the fisheye lens image and immediately and sets the projection correctly.  A quick look at the file info shows that the equirectangular projection is embedded into the file.  For 8k60 however you must use Raw LT and for whatever reason, the file it produces shows no such info.  Even modifying the info on the file within premiere and attempting to FORCE it to see it as an equirectangular projection does nothing: it stays at fisheye.
Of course, the only reason I made this expensive leap was for 8k60 and there's literally no information available as to why I'm having this problem.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
