Dynamic Linking between Premiere pro cs6 CC and After Effects is shaded grey and not working.

Hi, I currently have a CC membership with everything included in the package. I have already downloaded Premiere Pro CS6 and After Effects. However, I cannot figure out why , when I right click a video clip in Premiere, the dropdown menu has the 'replace with after effects' option within the list greyed out, apparently not an option for me. I've browsed several tutorials and all of them illustrate using dynamic linking with ease as a readily available option. Can anyone help with this please?

Thank You, Jim -
Unfortunately that specifically did not work.
Based on another comment sent to me, here is what did.
In PProCC
File > Adobe Dynamic Link > New After Effects Composition
In AECC
From that composition created from PPro, I imported the project (aep) initially created in AECC from another team member. Saved the file.

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 Pro and Premier Pro when importing sequences?

Let me explain what we're trying to do. In our office we have one gentleman who edits together multiple program segments for a broadcast television show we do. He creates a new project and sequence for each because we upload the segments separately for the web. My job is to edit together the entire show for television. So what I do is I import his sequences to PP. The reason I do a sequence instead of a rendered video is for I can go in an make any corrections. But if I do make corrections it only makes the corrections on my project and not the original project/sequence I imported. I would like for the changes to also appear on on the original. Is there away to do this? I know this works for Adobe After Affects, Adobe Photoshop and now SpeedGrade using Dynamic Link, but is there a way to do something similar between Premiere Pro projects or sequences? Thank you

To my knowledge there is no way to use Dynamic Link between PP on two different machines. The DL is for using PP on a single machine such as importing AE comps, PSD files, etc.
I understand what you are trying to do and it sounds like Adobe Anywhere would be what you would need. Editor "1" can make a project and edit a sequence...editor "2" can access the same project and sequence, make changes,and it will update back on editor "2" machine.
To do what you want without Adobe anywhere, and still retain the original sequence you might want to try this.
After you import the project file/sequences from the other editor, make your chances, master cut(s). Then have the other editor import your updated sequences.

Why is Dynamic Link between Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014 not syncing audio changes?

When I try to use a Dyamic Link between something I've cut in Premiere and a composition in After Effects, if it is simply an audio level change it will not update in AE. Only if I alter the Video track does it then take the changes reflected. Any suggestions as to what is causing this?
Running Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014.

As Dave alludes, AfterEffects is all about the visual changes ... or at least, mostly. For changes to the audio outside of PrPro's internal controls, highly suggested you use Audition instead. It is all about the sound ... and yes, will update PrPro when used correctly.

Premiere Pro CS6 vs. After Effects CS6

I would like to know which of these programs would be best for me. I shoot video with my Canon Vixia HFS 20 HD camcorder. I have a decent green screen studio set up in my basement. I currently use Corel VideoStudio Pro X3 and am not happy with the poor chroma key features it has. Is the Chroma key the same or similar on both of these programs? I would rather spend less for Premiere Pro unless there is some really cool stuff in After Effects that would make the additional cost worth it.
I just bought a new Dell XPS 8500 desktop with a Core i7 processor, 12GB of RAM, Nvidia GeForce GT 640 1GB GDDR5, 460 watt power supply, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and a 2TB hard drive. I just installed a WD Black 2TB internal second hard drive. I would be willing to upgrade the graphics card and/or RAM if it would make a noticeable difference.
I would really like some good advice on what to buy and suggestions of computer upgrades if needed.

1. If you feel unhappy with the reply, why did you mark it as the 'correct answer'?
That just decreases the probability some other Forum users visit your thread and give you an answer you will be more satisfied with...
2. You probably misunderstands Creative Cloud Files concept. Those 20 GB are for sharing files, they don't limit you in storing and editing footages on your hard drive, and you don't have to use it.
3. Both PrPro and AE have sets of keying tools that can do a decent job. However, the result always depends on many factors such as set up quality, the footage quality (it's difficult to pull a good key out of highly compressed footage) and your skills. Since AE is a compositing tool, you can pull better key there out of poor quality footage via several steps (which requires investing some time on learning).
Just download trial versions of both applications and test on your own.
If you're unhappy with built-in keying tools and have some money, you can extend them with 3-rd party plug-ins (e.g. Red Giant Primatte Keyer).

Problems with Dinamic Link between Premiere pro CC and After Effects CC

I'm having serious problems with dinamic link between premiere pro and after effects, really serious problems that have 2 big projects in trouble (a documentary and a video clip) and I had to redo all the work pipeline to the consumer.
The documentary for a spanish TV was made on CC 2014 and a video clip was made on CC. Both of them with a lot of after effects composition in the premiere pro timeline. Render freeze, a lot of playback issues, and many more problems... Until I decided to remove these links between premiere and after effects and render out all the after effects compositions one by one and insert as clips in premiere pro. 1 week working away with back and fourth.
I've got a huge workstation:
i7 4990
32Gb ram
GTX780 3gb
256 gb system ssd
2 Tb project storage
*All my hardware and software are update.
I know that a lot of folks are on the same huge problem and I want to ask everyone:
How do you save this?
What is your pipeline?
Are there any solution?
Best practice to use dinamic link in a huge project?
Thanks,

Premiere PRo CC Clip durch After Effects Komposition ersetzen funktioniert nicht

Wenn ich von Premiere aus einen Clip über die Funktion " Durch After Effects Komposition ersetzen" bearbeiten möchte, öffnet sich AE, legt ein neues Projekt an das ich dann auch speichere. Der Clip wird im Projektfenster auch angezeigt allerdings mit einer schwarzen Oberfläche. Wenn ich den Clip dann ins Kompositionsfenster ziehe wird eine neue Komposition angelegt aber das Vorschaufenster bleibt schwarz.
Wenn ich einen Clip den ich vorher aus Premiere exportiert habe und den dann in AE importiere funktionerts. Kann mir da jemand weiterhelfen????

Geht leider immer noch nicht. Kann zur Zeit nicht auf Forum zugreifen.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 classroom in a book lesson files "file format not supported" error message

Hey y'all. I have the creative Suite cloud membership and am learning Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 and have the latest update. I have an iMac, version 10.8.2 and have been going through the lessons 1-8 so far from the 'Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Classroom in a book' with no problems. So far so good. Then, when I opened Lesson 9 project today, I realized that certain media was off line (see pic below-videos and maps) even though I had been able to open the project. I tried to see if it was a link issue but was unable to select the 'Link Media' option and the system did not give me the option to link media when opening a new project. The strange thing is that I am now able to open some lessons with everything working fine but when I try to open other lessons such as lesson 9 or 10 or 11 I notice media files offline after getting the "file format not supported" pop-up error message when attempting to open a project. It's random as some lessons I had opened previously now give this error message of file format not supported when they didn't in the past whilst others work. I have deleted all the lesson files from my hard drive and reinstalled them from the cd onto my hardrive but the issue persists. Any idea as to why all of a sudden Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 is giving the error message "File format not supported"??? when opening the lessons. I have not changed any preferences. I've included some screenshots though I don't know how much help they will be... Is anyone else running into this issue??? Can anyone help???
NEVERMIND. I FOUND OUT ON MY OWN WHAT THE ISSUE WAS AND IS NOW FIXED. YAY!

Why were you trying to link a file in the project to the project file itself? Shouldn't it be a video file or something? Like .mov .wav .avi .mp4 and not .prproj

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

I'm editing with RED r3d files. I have just updated to CC but it doesn't want to dynamic link with After Effects CS6

Dynamic Link between Premire Pro and AE not working

I've been having this issue where dynamic link is grayed out in the Premiere Pro menu, when i try to link a clip to AE. It's the same the other way round (i.e. AE to Premiere), and also the "Replace with After Effects Comp" is grayed out as well. Im using the CC version (Not CC 2014), so it should work?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for your reply. I'm using CS6 (if that's what you mean by version - otherwise I think it's 7.0). I've never come across verifying the programs, how do I go about it?
Thanks

Dynamic Link (Adobe Premiere Pro to Encore) issues with burning a DVD from the project file

Hello,
I am running Adobe Suite CS 5.1 on my Mac:
2.8 GHz Quad Core
6GB Memory
I've been having issues with a few projects; using Dynamic Link, directly from my project in Premier, to send them to Encore:
When attempting to burn a DVD, Encore will 'hang up' and not burn; I rarely burn to DVD, usually I'm always encoding for web, and just always use the 'default settings' in Encore.
A few things to note:
*In my project I'm using MOV files, from a Canon 7D, and MP4 files, from a Sony EX-1.
*I am working off of 3 separate hard drives; very large projects with over 5TBs of media files.
*I noticed that after inserting a DVD, it caused one of my hard drives to eject; this happened once, as far as I know.
*This only happens when I use Dynamic Link to send to Encore, via my Premiere Pro project file.
*My Project settings are always: XDCam HD-1080p/24p
Please help.
Thanks

So you must downrez at some point in the workflow. Some users have problems and/or think they get better quality out of direct PR/AME exports than using DL for this purpose.
I would test the workflow by creating three short test sequences - one with a clip from one camera, a second from the other, and a third with both in a sequence using the same settings you are using in your edit. I would use the "drag a clip" to the new item method for making each of the first two sequences. By short I mean 30 seconds to 2 minutes with a mixture of still and action.
Export using whatever method you pick of those recommended, but use CBR 8 instead of VBR etc. Bring the resulting files into Encore. Yes, look at the files exported on the computer, and look at Encore preview, etc, but also burn to a disk and watch on multiple TVs. There are lots of issues in best quality.

Getting the Dynamic Link from Premiere Pro to AE

I read the dynamic link process in the Pr Pro on line ref manual BUT I'm just not getting easily as they say.
In Premiere I have edited my clips and they are on the time line in a sequence.
I want to take the edited clips, that are on the time line, individually into AE to do my effects and color correction.
I know to go to File >Dynamic Link>New AE Comp--- but the problem is that when I get the empty AE linked Comp I can only import the unedited clip from Pre Pro. What am I doing wrong??? is there a way to copy the clip from the time line an put into the AE comp. I did try to do that by simply copy and paste but the clip that ends up in AE is not readable. I pasted it into the timeline window of AE, it shows up but contains nothing. When I double click on it I get and error message saying invalid Quick time movie
I am on a Mac usign CS4
Thank U

OK its more than a year later since I originally posted this question.
I've been using the Dymanic Link method since that time, but recently read about pasting the Pre Pro sequenct into AE and remembered your suggestion of pasting instead. My work flow has been 1) Make Rough Edit version in Pre Pro, 2) Take each clip seqment individually into AE through Dynamic Link and dow what ever needs to be done; and 3) Render out the refined Sequence in Pre Pro.
So, If I am working on a project and in Pre Pro and I have lets say 5 video and audio layers and the entire sequence is 5 min. long, its best to IMPORT the Pre Pro Sequence into AE and work on that WHOLE 5 min project in AE.
I guess that I would end up doing a lot of pre-composing for each layer to keep the AE project from becoming 100 layers deep (even thought I have heard about 100 layers deep, I'm not trying to go there)
Is this the way most professional people work? what I mean is this the most efficient way to work: Dymanic Link for small fixes and Importing Pre Pro Sequence and/or video tracks for longer or larger works.
thanks

Dynamic link from premiere pro

Usually when i dynamic link to audition and save and go back to premiere it saves my files to my project folder im working from.
Something has changed and they save elsewhere, if I move the files to the project folder it stuffs up premiere wanting to reconnect everything..
And if I save them straight to my desired folder I have to import those files into premiere, frustrating me
Any ideas what I can do.?

I also need help with this. Whenever I dynamicly link is saves the new AA wav file next to where my PP proj file is. I don't want it to do this I want to save it to where all my media is. Is there really no way to tell audition to default save extracted audio from premiere to a certain location?.
The extracted WAV file is generated by Premiere, in this case, and Audition doesn't have any control over where it is saved. You can submit a feature request directly to Premiere by visiting https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
