Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC - Dynamic Link of an .aep not working - Stalls during import

I have been trying to import an .aep file into Premiere Pro CC from After Effects CC. As suggested, I import the file. The dynamic import window appears. It states connected to file along with the import files ... dialogue box. It stalls there.
I have been working off my network and have all the files collected on my machine.
My workaround to get me to deadline was to render my clips from AE and import them. Importing the .aep would make more sense from efficiency and workflow.
Thank you

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.
Back in PProCC
File > Adobe Dynamic Link > Import After Effects Composition
Magic.

  • Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC work slowly together - much worse than CS6

    Premiere Pro CS6 and After Effects CS6 worked together really well.  I could have both programs open and make a change in After Effects, then go back to Premiere Pro and see the changes pretty quickly.  Since upgrading both to CC, I can't jump back and forth and see the changes quickly.  I literally have to hit Enter and render the After Effect clip after every freakin' time I make a change to it in order to see it without any pauses or jumpiness in the playback.  CS6 worked great.  I can't express my disappointment in the Creative Cloud "upgrade".   So many things are SO MUCH WORSE!!!   Adobe you have to fix this stuff.

    The speed of the connection is dependent on your hardware and the type of comp you have in AE.
    I haven't noticed any significant performance difference between the two versions (I've also been heavily using dynamic link since CS6 ).
    Some comps will play fine in Premiere, some comps will need rendering. I generally render the clip in Premiere, as opposed to AE.
    If the same comp from CS6 is behaving significantly worse in CC, then you might be on to something, but it is most likely a bug isolated to your hardware config and not a general CC issue.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects CS5

    Hi I'm fairly inexperienced when it comes to Adobe products. I was wondering whether Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects CS5 can be used together, for instance Premiere Pro to do the basic editing and After Effects to do some more advanced stuff before importing the clip back into Premiere Pro for exporting the film.

    Yeah.

  • Erratic performance / missing footage with Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC 2014 dynamic links

    Hi all,
    I briefly touched on this amongst a host of other issues I has having while cutting my last project.
    Unfortunately I never heard anything from anyone regarding my issues with the Dynamic Link system.
    I had to bite the bullet and export (2-4K RAW) chunks of my last project, out of premiere using a Quicktime animation codec. This added an extra week to the post production process (which I did NOT get paid for).
    I'm also a bit frustrated because it pushed the project past the deadline. Though the client was understanding, they were far from thrilled and it reflects poorly on me.
    Anyhow. Project complete, on to the next-
    This time, I'm using mostly footage shot from an FS700 in AVCHD. I figured maybe the RED footage was somehow too much for the program to handle with my specs, however I am having the same issue as last time.
    I'll select a clip, or group of clips, go to replace with after effects composition, and sometimes they all make it, and often times they don't. The clips were shot within a couple minutes of one another and no settings were changed on the camera.
    I've noticed sometime's the media will show up in the timeline, but not appear on the monitor (as pictured below). Other times the name of the clip will appear in the comp, but there will be nothing on the timeline OR in the monitor.
    Never had this problem in CS6.
    Adobe or anybody, please help! This is absolutely killing my workflow, and costing me time and money.
    Here are my specs:
    I'm running Adobe Premiere CC 2014 v8.1
    Freshly installed Windows 7 Professional SP1 PC Desktop
    Freshly installed Samsung 1TB SSD running my OS and Adobe CC
    Intel Core i7-2600k CPU at 3.4GHz (8CPUs) - Watercooled
    16GB Ram (3gb allocated for other programs)
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 4GB GDDR5 - 3.40.62 Drivers installed
    Pulling media from 2x 3TB Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM drives, striped at RAID 0
    In this case pictured the second two clips in the sequence linked into AE, but the first wont show up in my monitor.

  • 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,

  • AMD FirePro D500 and Premiere Pro CS6 and After Effects CS6?

    My company just recently purchased the new 2013 Mac Pro with the AMD FirePro D500 graphics cards. Everytime I try to open After Effects CS6 I get a GPUManager Sniffer Result Code: 3 error and Premiere Pro CS6 sits on the splash screen indefinitely. Does Adobe not play nice with the new card? Am I out of luck?

    In effort to fix the problem while waiting for a response I unstalled both AE and PP CS6 but not I can't seem to reinstall them from anywhere.... so I don't know what version of After Effects I have/had.
    My operating sysem is OS X 10.9.2 (13C64) . My graphics card information is:
    AMD FirePro D500:
      Chipset Model:          AMD FirePro D500

    As far as CUDA, I originally had an iMac that was using Time Machine and that is how I transfered my stuff over to the new Mac Pro. It had CUDA on there...

  • Premiere and After Effects CS4 Dynamic Link "glitches"

    I am no longer able to use dynamic link when I try to link to multiple AE compositions from Premiere.
    What happens is, when playing the sequence back in premiere, there are random frames in the dynamic link clip that are out of order. For example if I have two compositions, A and B, each 1 second, and they are in my Premiere project, the playback might do something crazy like this:
    Should be (frames):
    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
    Really:
    AAABAAAAAAAAAABBAAAAAAAABBABABABABBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
    I'm not sure if there is any pattern to it, but dynamic link is just not working. I thought this might be a preview issue, so I tried rendering it and I got the same incorrect sequence as the preview. I've tried things like removing and adding the compositions again, or deleting the media cache, but this always randomly comes up.
    My only option has been to export in AE (and when doing uncompressed that can use a lot of disk space).
    Any ideas as to how to solve this? Or is dynamic link just a broken feature?

    Well that was stupid. I had to rename the compositions (they were created from Premiere so the automatic names had a trailing number). Then I had to reimport the comps and place them over the old broken ones (clearing the cache didn't seem to help with those).
    After replacing with comps without numbers and clearing all of the caches, it seems to be working so far.
    I can't believe this bug even exists. Especially when the "Replace with After Effects composition" will repro the bugs. Sounds like poor testing on Adobe's part.
    At the very least this should be documented somewhere officially. I was able to find this post on the web after looking up this specific issue: http://www.digitalrebellion.com/blog/posts/adobe_dynamic_link_troubleshooting.html

  • How to properly configure a graphics card for Adobe Premiere Pro, SpeedGrade, and After Effects?

    Alright, so I have the following system configuration:
    2 NVIDIA Geforce GTX 970s
    5960X CPU
    MSI X99 Gaming 7 Motherboard
    32 GB DDR4 RAM
    256 GB and 1TB Samsung 850 Pro SSDs
    Basically, although I have the whole system built together, I'm unsure how to check and know whether or not Adobe Premiere Pro is actually using the graphics card or not.  I know that it has to be using some of it, otherwise it wouldn't launch properly (as I discovered from a recent experience.)  However, I don't know if there are, perhaps, certain settings within the NVIDIA control panel that should be configured so that Premiere Pro can use the card to its full potential.  Here is an example of what I'm talking about:
    In other words, these are (I'm pretty sure) all of the default settings that the control panel applies to Premiere Pro.  However, I'm not sure if there are any settings in here that I need to change or not.  So what I'm looking for in a response to this question:
    What settings, if any, should I change for Premiere Pro (as well as other adobe applications that can utilize all the strength of the GTX 970)?
    How can I check the GPU activity to know that it's being used during a render?  (For example, I can check the CPU utilization with the Task Manager while I render to see that it's being utilized to 100%).
    If, perhaps, something else goes wrong and even with the right settings, let's say the card still isn't being fully utilized, what other settings might I have to change to make sure that the GTX 970 is being fully used by Adobe Premiere Pro/After Effects/SpeedGrade CC 2014?

    If you want a benchmark to measure the performance of Premiere Pro's utilization of  your: disk system, GPU and CPU use our Premiere Pro BenchMark (PPBM)
    When you finish running the test and then run the script, you will get this report
    This happens to be the result of my laptop (with SSD drives and a GTX 765M GPU)
    The disk performance is self explanatory.
    Number 2 is a seven layer very complex timeline with heavy CPU and GPU assistance, without GPU hardware acceleration (CPU only) it would take greater than 1350 seconds.
    Three above is a measure of a exaggerated timeline using many, many GPU MPE accelerated effects and features that will use a GPU at 99% load (54 seconds above) and a CPU only export of the same timeline (802 seconds).
    If you want to compare your results to others you have to register on the PPBM7 site to see the results.
    EDIT! I corrected the number in 2 above originally I said 900 seconds but really it was greater than 1350 seconds

  • Avid Unity with Adobe Premiere Pro CC and After Effects

    Has anyone used Avid Unity for media with Adobe Premiere Pro CC? I'd like to hear some feedback as we are working on doing that right now, and I'd like to know what the hurdles or pitfalls might be.

    Open System Preferences > Mouse and/or Trackpad.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 and After Effects CS5 crash after splash screen

    Im am fed up with this ive done everything i can and no one seems to know whats wrong, i installed CS5 on my macbook and imac i7, and they both worked for a while but then suddenly my imac i7 cs5 stopped working and kept crashing, my macbook continues to work just fine, ive even done a system reinstally and reinstalled os x and yes it would work for a little and then stop, they both have the same programs, whats weird is when i create a new user with admin privileges on my imac it would work fine but i deleted some files in the main account trying to fix the problem and no it wont work in the second account so here i am doing a system reinstally one last time. i called adobe they were no help at all literally, i called apple they did as much as they could i mean apple really made me feel like they tried, so here i am can anyone help?

    Ok so i figured it out, the problem is my downloaded fonts from the internet. What sucks is that adobe cs4 applications ran perfectly fine with them, but now cs5 doesnt . I uninstalled my downloaded fonts and guess what?! it worked! I wonder why cs4 starts up with no problems with the same fonts and cs5 cant, thats just stupid...

  • Adobe Dynamic Link will not work - Premiere Pro CS4 to After Effects CS4

    Hello,
       I am edited a video with a deadline, I'm importing a sequence from Premiere Pro CS4 to After Effects and making edits in After Effects. I'm able to import the Premiere Pro sequence into After Effects using Dynamic Link, but  I go back to Premiere Pro and nothing has changed. Then I have to export the 21 minute long video in After Effects and that takes about 12 hours, that I can't afford. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, before I imported the timeline into AE, while I was in Premiere Pro I right clicked it and selected -Edit original. It took me to the .mov that I imported- since it's a redo. I learned how to use Dynamic Link from this tutorial-
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-cs4-production-premium/using-dynamic-link/
    At first when Dynamic link didn't work I thought it was because I was cutting the imported Sequence from Premiere Pro in After Effects becasue I was motion tracking. When you import a Premier Pro sequence can you cut it into individual layers in After Effects? 

    I'm importing a sequence from Premiere Pro CS4 to After Effects
    That doesn't create the type of Link you want here.  In this case, changes made to PP would show up in AE.  You want the reverse.  (And you can only go one way, not both.)

  • How to link premiere pro cs6 to after effects cc?

    I've been working on a project on premiere pro cs6 and linked some clips to after effects cs6. After upgrading my laptop's software to Yosemite after effects cs6 wouldn't work and I could't open the linked clips neither on the premiere pro preview, nor on after effects cc.

    Dynamic Link only works between the same versions.

  • Importing from premiere pro cs5 to after effects cs5

    hi, can anyone help me with this problem?
    im editing some stuff in premiere pro cs5 and when i import it into after effects cs5 for colour correction and other effects all the transitions that i had from premiere will disappear. if someone can guide me step by step to this process it will be very helpful
    Thanks,
    Randolph Azzopardi

    As Mylenium suggests, there are many ways to move information between Premiere Pro and After Effects.They are all outlined on this page: "Working with After Effects and Premiere Pro"
    You didn't specify, but I'll assume as he did that you are exporting a Premiere Pro project from After Effects. That works by converting things from native After Effects to their equivalents in Premiere Pro; sometimes there isn't a good equivalent, so the conversion isn't perfect. The same conversion is done as is done for copying and pasting between After Effects and Premiere Pro. There's a set of tables that describe the conversions here.
    The way to get perfect fidelity is to either use Dynamic Link (as Mylenium suggested) or render and export a movie from After Effects and import that into Premiere Pro.

  • Bringing Premiere Pro project into After Effects

    I tried importing Premiere Pro projects to After Effects, but I only got the various files, not the timeline. I just watched a tutorial about Dynamic Link, but when I clicked Adobe Dynamic Link/New After Effects composition in Premiere, I got a layer that was all black, with no sound. I have CS3 Production Premium and Windows XP Media Center SP2.
    Right now, I just want to keep what I edited in Premiere, but I get better quality video if I export it to H.264 MOV in After Effects than anything I've found in Premiere. I can't understand why that's so, but until I find something just as good in Premiere, I want to save everything in After Effects.

    Create a project and a comp. Copy the timeline from Premiere Pro and paste it into the timeline of After Effects.
