Dynamic Link with Encore, Photoshop, and After Effects

Intention 1: Im using Photoshop CS5 (PS5) & After Effects CS5 (AE5) to create a DVD menu for Encore CS5 (EN5). I used the 'Film & Video' preset in PS5 to make a standard HD 1440 x 1080px image size; which looks the same in AE5. My problem is in PS5 the 'Pixel Aspect Ratio Correction'  size is the size i want the universal size to be. Its a more stretched version which looks better to me, but may not work well with HD monitors (as this DVD will be played on a 17" laptop).
Question 1: Is there any way to have AE5 recognize the 'pixel aspect ratio correction' from PS5 and make the composition settings that size in AE5?
```
Question 2: What are standard sizes for computer monitors that would work welll mostly with the Dynamic Link in AE5 and EN5 working with PS5?

Yes, it can be very confusing. With CS5, however, as long as you keep it all the same, it doesn't require setting. But you do need to understand it.

  • Issue with Dynamic Link with Premiere CC and After Effects

    I'm having a strange and annoying issue with Dynamic linked clips in Premiere CC:
    When I render or export my timeline the progress will stall when it hits a dynamic linked clip.  It will stay stalled until I click the After Effects application and make it the active window.  Once that happens the render/export resumes at normal speed. 
    This is annoying as I can't start a render and walk away or work on different windows, I have to babysit all the renders to make sure they go through.
    Has anybody experienced this and know of any solutions? 
    I'm running the latest version of Premiere (7.2.1) and After Effects 12.2.0.52 on Mavericks 10.9.1 with a GTX 770 Video Card.

    Does it still pause if AE is closed completely? I often experience slower AME renders from Premiere over dynamic link material when AE is open. Closing AE speeds things up. Go figure.

  • Dynamic link between Premiere pro and After effects versions?

    I was wondering if it was possible to use the dynamic link between different version of the products like preimere pro cs5.5 and after effects cs5.0, I downloaded the trial of premiere cs5.5 while I already have bought and installed after effects 5.0 a while ago. when I tried using dynamic link with premiere 5.5 with my current after effects cs5, the "replace with after effects composition" in premiere was greyed out. I didnt know if this was just a limitation of the trial, or if the two different versions (PR cs5.5 with AE cs5) were incompatable with dynamic link. hope you guys understand the question, and any answers would be helpful!

    Ok so just to get this straight, in order to use dynamic link between adobe premiere pro and after effects you have to have the complete suite? or just the same version installed? all I want to be able to do is have a good workflow between premiere pro to after effects to get my vfx done, and then send them back to premiere seemlesly without spending $2000 dollars on the entire suite just to use those 2 programs and because the suite is way over my budget. is that the only possible way (other than cs6, because I dont have the $$ to update either)

  • Dynamic link between Premiere CC and After Effects CS6 doesn't seem to be working :(

  • Dynamic Link from Premiere CC to After Effects CC Issues.

    Just bought a new iMac maxed out 3.75ghz quad-core, 32 gig of ram, 1t solid state and 4 gigs of video ram; so my machine is more then capable of using adobe video applications very well.  I like to do a lot of dynamic link things from premiere to after effects and 9 times out of 10 I use a black video (File>New>Black Video) as my place holder on the time line or you could use bars or a color matte, doesnt matter..  When I do my composite in after effects and then come back to premiere to render, it takes freaking forever if I leave after effects open.  If I close after effects then do the render, it fires through the premiere render and no problems. 
    Now I also have a maxed out 12 core 64 gig ram Mac Pro tower at work and I have the same problem.  Is this a known bug thats in the works of being fixed?  Is there a work around instead of closing after effects to render to make it work smoother?  Is adobe aware of this issue?  Nothing is crashing or failing, its just taking a long time to render when i dynamic link if i leave after effects open.  Any help or feedback would be awesome, thanks!

    I spoke with vidya sagar from tech support a few minutes ago to get an update on when, maybe this update to fix this problem will be rolled out.  He told me he and his whole team is aware of the situation.  He mentioned its a problem where ram between premiere and after effects isn't being balanced out enough and thats why premiere is taking so long to render out after effect compositions.  With all do respect, I'm not trying to be a nag.  Can you maybe give me a progress report on where the team is with fixing this related issue?  Vidya said your the man to ask and that you're a very reliable resource to get information out of with problems such as this.

  • I need to reinstall my computer, how do I deal with Premiere pro and After effects?

    Hello,
    As my question states I need to reinstall my computer (laptop) and I'm not quite sure on how to deal with Premiere pro and After effects.
    I am thinking that I need to do some sort of backup and save my projects and footage on a sepparate drive.
    If I reinstall my computer, install my creative suit production premium, and move back all of my projects and footage, won't I have to re-link every single clip?
    I am currently workning on several different projects and having to re-link everything is something I don't even want to think about, that would take me days if not weeks.
    Another option on my mind would be to use Creative cloud. I do have the free version but I have never used it even once before and I'm not quite sure what the purpose of the cloud is and if this is a way to use it.
    I have no idea how to go about this computer reinstalation without either loosing tons of work or having to re-link every single clip used.
    I am videoediting only as a hobby so I have no experience working with other people and sharing projects or the like, wich is my understanding of what the cloud is for.
    Any and all help would be grealty appreciated, I know this is probably really easy but ever since i got my Suit I haven't reinstalled, upgraded och changed my computer so I am just clueless as to how to go about this.
    I have Creative suit production premium, I also have the free Creative cloud.
    It is only Premiere pro and After effects that I am using and am worried about.
    Thank you for any help.

  • Photoshop and After Effects is not installing with the new updates, any suggestions?

    Each time the update says that the "update failed".  I have tried the update several times, both on my laptop and my iMac.  Photoshop finally installed on the iMac, but neither will update on the MacBook Pro.

    This is a bit of a shot in the dark, but check to make sure that you have Rosetta installed in Mac OS and then try again to install After Effects. I know that Mac OS has a (mistaken) dependency on Rosetta for After Effects to run. It _may_ be that this dependency also causes a problem with installation.
    Here's a document that lists some know issues with After Effects on Snow Leopard:

    When you do get After Effects CS4 installed, be sure to immediately update to After Effects CS4 (9.0.2).

  • Encore, Buttons, and After Effects

    I am trying to use After Effects to create a button - I watched Lynda.com and I think I know how to create the button in After Effects, BUT when I import via Dynamic Link the Composition and the button into Encore, Encore does not recognize the botton I have created as a button, therefore, I have no way to link my video to the button.  Any help would be appreciated - thanks!

    I was able to answer my own question - you need to import the project into Photoshop.  You can create buttons there.  Here is the only really good tutorial I found and this one is great - http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/dvd_authoring/ - the one thing I have discovered is that there are several different ways to accomplish the same thing when you are authoring DVD's. 

  • Dynamic Link Audio Troubleshooting- Premier to After Effects CS5

    Hello!
      My name is Alley and I've been working on a project in After Effects CS5 using dynamic linked sequences from premier. I've been in this project for a good two weeks without any major problems concerning the dynamic link. When I open the project on another computer, however, sometimes there is audio missing from some of the sequences. I look in the premier project and sure enough the audio is all there, no keyframes or anything and it plays back fine. It just won't appear in After Effects even after a render. I know it probably has something to do with the different computers but I don't know if anyone else has ever had this problem before and if you found a solution.
    • Both computers are Mac OS X Versions 10.6.6 2x2.8 GHz Quad-Cores
    • After Effects and Premier are CS5 versions, completely updated
    • There are no errors or warnings popping up within the programs
    • All Dynamic Linked sequences are 2 minutes tops although there are a multiple of them
    • Not ALL the sequences have the audio problem, it seems to be random
    I can't wrap my brain around how two nearly identical computers with the same versions of both programs are getting different results with the audio in the dynamic link sequence... Help me out?

    Quicktime! The versions of Quicktime and or even just some QT component/CoDec may be different between the computers. Also keep in mind, that your alternate computer may in fact require you to explicitly open the project in Premiere to conform the audio properly first. If that hasn't happened, AE may simply not be able to use some tracks as it will expect a conformed audio file. This is critical especialyl with compressed formats. It may even require you to re-render the Premiere timeline on the second computer...

  • PAL Widescreen format between photoshop and After Effects

    Hi, I wonder if someone else has bumped into the problem I have and has a solution. I am working with Photoshop, After Effects and Premiere Pro(all CS3 levels) to create a project using still and moving images. I am using PAL widescreen (16:9) format for the first time so have cropped my still images in Photoshop to 1024 x 576 pixels. Starting a new project in After Effects I chose PAL/Widescreen and set the resolution to 1024x576. When I bring in my images and drop them to the timeline they have the same height as the AE screen but are significantly shorter than the displayed 1024 pixel size. If I drop the images into Premiere they will size to 1024 x 576. Am I doing something drastically wrong here ?

    Just to add to this, I am confused over exactly what is happening inside
    After Effects with regard to interpreting PAL footage!
    When you go to the Compositions Settings dialogue box there are two Presets
    on the drop down list for non-square pixels; PAL D1/DV and PAL D1/DV
    Widescreen.
    Both comps are 720 x 576 pixels.
    However when you go to the drop down list for Pixel Aspect Ratio the two
    options there for non-square pixels are PAL D1/DV (1.09) and PAL D1/DV
    Widescreen (1.46)
    According to my calculations:
    PAL 4:3 in square pixels = 768 x 576 (768 / 4 * 3 = 576)
    Doing the maths the Pixel Aspect Ratio rounds up to 1.07 not 1.09
    768 / 720 = 1.06666666667
    PAL 16:9 in square pixels = 1024 x 576 (1024 /16 * 9 = 576)
    Again doing the maths the Pixel Aspect Ratio rounds up to 1.42 not 1.46
    1024 / 720 = 1.42222222222
    If the Pixel Aspect Ratios given are correct then the Width of both
    Compositions should be 704 not 720!
    768 / 704 = 1.0909090909 which rounds up to 1.09
    1024 / 704 = 1.454545454545 which rounds up to 1.46
    Using the preset comp Width with the preset Pixel Aspect Ratios doesn't seem
    to add up or am I missing something fundamental here?
    Perhaps I should just import the footage using whatever Pixel Aspect Ratio
    into a PAL comp with square pixels and then just use the fit to comp command
    to make sure it really does fit!
