    Hi all,
    I installed CS4 master collection recently (I have Vista 64bits, 4GB, Q9450) and my problem is as followed:
    I make a composition in AE and import it to PPRO. Whenever I render the timeline in PPRO (the composition is like other ‘items’ in the timeline (using

    dynamic link), I see once every few frames a ‘glitch’ or some kind of interrupt in the movie. this goes only one frame, and in random places on the

    frame. I tried to switch between ‘optimize for performance’ and ‘optimize for memory’ in the preferences of PPRO, but there’s no different.
    Very weird, I must say.
    Does anyone have an idea?
    My only option is to export the compostion in AE to an AVI and then import it as a regular file to PPRO, but I lose all the benefits of dynamic link, bad idea…
    (how do I attach a file here? I wanted to show you a freezed frame with such glitch)

    More often than not, intermittent glitch frames within AE mean corrupted buffered frames. Simply purging the RAM cache within AE will almost always clear these issues up.

    That said, I don’t really use dynamic link so I’m not sure if this fix would apply in your situation, but it’s worth a shot. Not in front of AE right now but I believe you can find it under Edit>Purge>Purge All.
