  when linking after effects projects in adobe premiere pro CS3 playback issues

  Posted by Dax Coley on July 4, 2011 at 6:58 am

  This is my first post here on Creative Cow.net. I’m currently using Adobe Premier Pro CS3 and linking to a After Effects project which is from the same creative suite. The link project plays in Premier terrible. I know the premier and after effects deal with color differently yuv vs rgb. I even render out a tiff sequence and still having some choppy playback. Any one has gotten any ideas?

  Thanks for whatever anyone can think of in advance.

  Have you rendered the project within Premiere (hit “Enter”) to see if that helps? Could just be a function of your computer being unable to keep up w/realtime playback, especially if it’s a large project.

  If not that, maybe there’s a difference in project settings between Premiere & After Effects (different frame rates, progressive vs interlacing, etc) or how the AE footage is being interpreted in Premiere (right click -> Interpret Footage)?

  If your computer is older, has limited RAM, or if it’s a big file, it still might have problems. Mine running CS3 on 32-bit Windows would choke on anything larger than 720×480 & often failed to render due to running out of available memory. Dynamic Link was pretty much out of the question (& I think it was generally problematic in CS3). Seems to run much better using CS5 w/64-bit Windows. Maybe time for an upgrade 🙂

  Good luck!
