"timed out obtaining dynamic link server connection" in After Effects

Hi!
I can't use the warp stabilizer or the Track Camera function, it stops after a while and produces the "timed out obtaining dynamic link server connection" error. Regardless of footage, and I have disabled all firewall software.

Hi, i have the same issue in After Effects CC, i have tried the "run as administrator" solution above and it is still saying "timed out obtaining dynamic link server connection". i have windows 8 64bit

  • After Effects, Track camera unable to obtain dynamic link server connection

    This has been hit and miss. I am now consistenly getting a dynamic link server connection trying to use Track camera in After Effects.

    I have enabled all the recommended programs through my firewall. I see the dynamiclink server is running in my task manager, I have closed all other programs, no antivirus, I have restarted my computer, no luck with this.
    Also to add additional information:
    It seems that when I try to do replace with After Effects composition in Premiere Pro I am getting error: The importer reported a generic error
    and also when I first launch After effects I am getting a failure to load a few plugins from CineForm including importer

    Hi guys,

    After Effect 13.1.1.3
    No antivirus or firewall running.
    Any suggestion or the only way is to unistall, run adobe CC cleaner and reinstall? I'm in the middle of a project, quite in a hurry, and I prefer to avoid it if possible.
    While I normally don't suggest too many changes in the middle of a project, have you considered updating to the latest version of AE? 13.2 released a couple of days ago. If the update messes you up, you were going to need to uninstall, run the CC Cleaner, and reinstall anyway...

  • "timed out obtaining dynamiclink server connection" in After Effects

    I've seen a lot of other people have this same problem, none of the solutions ive seen are working for me.
    Problem appears when i try to track camera, it goes to 'analyzing in background' then after 2 minutes or so it gives me the "timed out obtaining dynamiclink server connection" error pop-up.
    Mac OSX 10.7.5
    Using Adobe After effects CC
    2 x 2.4ghx quad-core intel xeon
    15gb ddr3 ram
    I've uninstalled Logmein which appeared as a problem in one of the solutions but that hasn't changed anything. Don't have a firewall running. Tried uninstalling After Effects CS6 and After Effects CC and then reinstalling After Effects CC. Dynamiclinkmanager pops up in activity monitor intermittently, it comes and goes repeatedly when i try to 'Track Camera' but never shows any actual use of memory.
    Is anyone able to offer help?
    Could it be some confusion in preferences / library files between my CS6 installs and CC installs?
    Thanks in advance

  • Dynamic link - premiere pro to after effects

    Hey,
    these days, premiere pro's dynamic link suddenly stopped working. I tried many things, like reinstalling premiere pro, allowing everything explicitely in the (windows 7) firewall, changing the names of my project etc.
    It stopped working means that 'replace with adobe after effets composition' and 'edit clip in audition' are both greyed out, just as File -> dynamic link is greyed out.
    It is not greyed out in After Effects though, and I can import a premiere pro sequence from there. Just if I save the result and import it in premiere pro I can look at it, but not add it to a sequence (?).
    Also I found that in the dynamic link folder there is a link to Premiere Pro CS4 (??) which I never had. I am using CC.
    Any idea on what's going on and what to do?
    thanks

    So after reinstalling all the Ap did it fix the dynamic Link issue? What was the solution. It appears that avanishdivya
    gave some bad advice. I can't find any other threads that are discussing this issue except http://forums.adobe.com/message/5571320 and this didn't work for me either.

  • Dynamic Link for Premiere and After Effects CS4 with Titles

    I've created a Rolling Title in Premiere Pro CS4.  I'd like to create a Dynamic Link to bring the title into After Effects CS4 to add effects that will show up in Premiere.  I've watched a few video tutorials on Dynamic Link and read the documentation and tried a variety of permutations but can't seem to get this done.
    Also saw something in these forums about problems using Dynamic Link with Titles (as opposed to regular clip??)
    And something about Premiere and After Effects projects being saved together ??in same folder - is that correct?
    So, could someone explain if this can be done and the right way to do it?
    Thanks

    Thanks Mylenium - appreciate the quick and focused reply.
    I would like to keep the benefits of the Premiere Pro Titler (to play with the length of time by stretching or squashing the Title block on the timeline; to type in time to stay on screen at end; ease in and out etc . . .).  If I do render out a png / tiff / or psd sequence with alpha, and bring that into AFX to play with.  Will I still retain the ability to use the Titler features in Premire Pro, or do I essentially have to convert it to 'regular footage' on reimport as opposed to a 'Title?"
    Thanks

  • Dynamic Link from Premiere to After Effects causing 'Zoom' controls not to function...

    I'm using Premiere Pro CS5 with a Dynamic link to an After Effects CS5 composition and I'm having some real issues with zoom control (once I'm in AE). When I run the composition 1 or 2 times the zoom function (ctrl +/-) will work, but after a few run through's it doesn't function at all. Even trying to manually change the zoom by clicking won't work. This happens EVERY time I use a dynamic link -- anyone else having this issue? (It also won't allow me to render... but I can see my comp move when I scrub through with the mouse).
    Also, when I create the same composition w/o the dynamic link everything works perfectly... (I just don't want to have to re-render it out... which is why I would like Dynamic Link to work properly).
    Here's what I'm running;
    Windows 7 Pro - 64bit
    Core i7-960
    24GB DDR3
    x2 300GB 10k RPM HD
    ATI 4790 1GB
    Thanks,
    Drew

    Mylenium, Todd,
    Thanks for your suggestions. I've updated all of my 3rd party software drivers, as well as AECS5 and it seemed to work... for an extra 10 minutes. I ended up turning off OpenGL (as directed above) and that has seemed to help as well (although render playback seems to suffer). I will test for another few hours and hopefully it will continue to work.
    I was also able to replicate the problem on my laptop with the same proceedures... perhaps it's the ATI card that's causing the issue... but it doesn't seem to be a one-time event. (Although it's causing my laptop to crash now mid-render).
    Cheers,
    D

  • Dynamic Link from Premiere to After Effects (Source footage keeps erasing)

    I am using Premiere cs4 and when I right clip on a clip on my sequence and hit (Replace with After Effects Composition) It opens it up with after effects.  That part works.  I also can make changes in After effects to the clip and I go back to Premiere and the changes are made.  The problem is when I close After effects, in my premiere project the file that I changed in after effects goes offline and It is only color bars.  If I open up the after effects project again it also shows that the source footage I edited is offline.
    How do I fix this issue.   All I want to do is take a couple clips in my premiere project and edit them in after effects.  How do I keep it through the dynamic link and keep it saved even when after effects is closed??  Or if I have to reopen after effects how do I make it so the footage loads back in?
    Please help!
    Thanks

    Hellow Kate
    Now that worked for me 2! Thank you very much for the advice. Hope they fix this serious issue in the CS5 edition that is announced.
    Otherwise I think the adobe-software is not wurth that amount of money. Indeed, it's very incredible software with great tools. But
    such problems can not be tolerated...
    Hope they do something about it!
    Kind regards

  • Problème Dynamic Link Premiere Pro vers After Effect

    Bonjour à tous,
    je dispose de Premiere Pro CC et After Effect CC, et depuis une mise à jour récente mes préférences ont changées.
    Je ne sais pas s'il s'agit donc d'un problème de paramères ou un bug mais voilà le soucis:
    Lorsque je prend les rushes d'une séquence dans Premiere et que je la "remplace par une composition after effect", tout mes rushes arrivent précomposés dans after, alors qu'avant ce n'était pas le cas.
    Ce n'est pas ce que je souhaite, d'autant plus que les précompositions n'ont pas le même temps que mon rush (donc j'ai des trous dans ma composition after)
    Si quelqu'un a déjà rencontré cela, ou sait comment reccupérer un rush dans une précomp pour le "dé-précomposer" cela m'aiderai beaucoup.
    Merci à vous

    Bonjour, il semblerait qu'il y ait une nouvelle option:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/aftereffects/2013/09/after-effects-cc-12-1-whats-new-and-changed.ht ml
    option when precomposing to trim precomposition duration to duration of selected layers
    When you precompose, you have a new option: Adjust Composition Duration To The Time Span Of The Selected Layers. Choose this to create a new composition that has a duration that is the same as that spanned by the selected layers. If you deselect this option, then the duration of the newly created composition is the same as the duration of the original composition, without regard for the duration of the layers being precomposed; this has been the only option in previous versions of After Effects.

  • Very slow Export to Media Encoder and Media Encoder connecting to dynamic link server

    My flow is this: Open After Effects CC, import an image sequence, go to File > Export > Add to Adobe Media Encoder Queue...
    Every other time i do this it will take 2-3 mins before Media Encoder even shows the splash screen, then it'll take another 1-2 mins to open.
    Next, I'll select my custom preset over on the right side of the window, then hit the Play button to begin encoding.  Sometimes nothing will happen at all, sometimes I'll see the Orange stripped bar on the lower left and the message Media Encoder connecting to dynamic link server and that'll last 5+ minutes and I end task to get out of AE and ME. Sometimes, ME will begin encoding right away and zip through the small animation sequence quickly without issue.
    I have WIndows 7 Pro, I'm on a work network with access to the internet  and AE has been updated 24 days ago.  I have a subscription and I'm signed on.  However, sometimes I do not have the Creative-Cloud icon in my systray.
    Thanks,

    Thanks.  I have 16GB Ram, 64bit Win7,  Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3970X @ 3.50GHz 3.50GHz.  AE is set to have maximum disk cache of 46GB. RAM reserved for other applications: 5GB RAM available for AE, PR, Pl, (some triangular icon [edit] which is ME ), Ps: 10GB. nothing else checked on that screen.
    Typically just a mail client, 1 or 2 sessions of Firefox, 1 or 2 network folders open when i launch AE.
    The last couple of times specifically, i had a 450 frame animation sequence at native 720p.  then i added a curves layer on top of it in AE, then added two ~600x300px  logos, one in each lower corner, then added a new solid layer which i used as a vignette. Finally over that i added a 720p still image which i held for another 15 seconds beyond the animation.
    For the above, i ended-task, rebooted, brought it up again and it lauched ME quickly, then i got the stripped bar and connecting message until i ended task on that, then the 3rd time was the charm - everything opened quickly and it began to encode quickly.
    The next three uses late afternoon yesterday were 150 frame animations at 480x270 and they all seemed to work fine.  I created the sequence in 3ds max, then closed and went into AE.  Then I'd close AE render another sequence, back into AE etc...

  • Dynamic link server won't connect

    After a complete reinstall of my computer (Mac Pro 5.1, nvidia GTX 120 & GTX780) i cant use dynamic link to import sequences out of other projects. Dynamic link server can't connect. What can I do to resolve this?

    Well I'm not (yet) sure if it was the ethernet cable or the firewall service.  I'm guessing that the service must be reconfigured if you switch routers.  Doh!

  • Adobe Media Encoder Dynamic Link Server NOT CONNECTING to Premiere Pro

    I have Media Encoder CS5, as part of the Creative Suite 5. My programs say that I have no updates to install, so everything is up to date.
    I am having an issue with the dynamic link server.
    Here's what has happened thus far.
    Recently when I have tried to encode a project sequence from Adobe Premiere Pro it DOES NOT work. This is the first time that has happened.
    I repeated the process and again, it still happened, unable to connect to the Dynamic Link.
    The Error messages that I was getting was "could not read from source. Check if it has been moved or been deleted"
    Once, I received this, I went to check to see if all files were linked properly, and they were. Everything was rendered and all was good in the timeline and the project itself.
    Yet, again, the error message appeared.
    Then I tested a previous project that I knew had been exported and worked through Adobe to Media Encoder. And all the files were linked properly and yet again received the error message I wrote above.
    Then I thought the Dynamic Link itself wasn't working properly, so I tested importing an Adobe After Effects Comp into a Premiere Timeline and it DID WORK.
    Then I went and tested if a video file of an already exported project would be able to sync to Media Encoder. And this WORKED.
    I then went to add the file directly from Media Encoder and when I went to add a sequence from a saved Premeire File, it would take about 5 minutes "Connecting to Dynamic Link Server", to then state, "Connecting to Dynamic Link Server Failed"
    My question is, how do I fix the dynamic link between Media Encoder and Premiere? Because, additionally, importing and After Effects Sequence works with Media Encoder.

    I've been searching/troubleshooting for days, none of the firewall, new shortcuts in folder, antivirus, you name it I tried it even wiped my system which seemed to work at first..
    What did it for me in the end was I had Dxtory (a software recorder, for recording gameplay) running on startup, and somehow it interfered with only Premiere projects in Media Encoder, I could still import AE projects go figure.
    Check all the programs you have running or use sometimes, if they have some sort of hook into other programs/deal with video/codecs this could be your problem too!
    Thanks to everyone trying to solve this problem!

  • Import Error: Connecting to Dynamic Link Server Failed

    Just tried to import file sinto a brand new LR Catalog when I got this message...here's the entire error message:
    "An unknown error has occurred while reading the video file. Connecting to Dynamic Link server failed. (98)"
    Connecting to Dynamic Link Server Failed
    this was then followed by a list of files of these types:
    .mov
    .m4v
    .3gp

    I've read several threads about this problem (because I had it myself) and what worked was closing Lightroom, uninstalling Quicktime, restart Lightroom, ignore the "you have to have quicktime" message, and import the videos. Then I reinstalled Quicktime.
    But, I think the problem isn't quicktime itself; I think it's something to do with iTunes. During Quicktime uninstallation, it said that iTunes was open. I disagreed, but Task Manager showed the process still running. I had to kill it manually to complete the uninstall.
    So, just a thought, maybe check to be sure iTunes isn't running before trying the Lightroom import? One never knows....

  • Dynamic Link cannot connect to server - Mac OSX

    Hi,
    I have a problem importin AE compositions with Dynamic Link.
    I have Master Collection CS5 installed on a Mac oSX 10.5.8
    When I try, for example, to import in Media Encoder a AE composition happear the window where I should choose the composition, but for a few minutes stay "Connecting to Dynamic Link server" and than "Cannot connect to Dynamic Link server".
    I was never able to use Dynamic Link since I installed CS5.
    I also tried to create a new admin user and with that new user it worked, but only for maybe a week... than it started again to say "cannot connect....."
    Something change in preferences I think, but I have no idea what can be, I used without problems on friday evening last time and on monday morning it quit to work...
    Someone know something more about?
    Thanks in advance.

    It's possible that you're seeing a case of the problem described here:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/857/cpsid_85711.html
    Basically, some aggressive firewall software can block communication with the Dynamic Link manager, and you have to manually unblock it.
