  • AE CS3 and Prem Pro CS3 Help!

    I have a few problems and a few questions with AE and Prem Pro CS3.

    1. I’m trying my hand at making a music video which means a lot of fast edits and so forth. Now when using dynamic link it seems that I have to open up a million AE compositions for each of the clips. Its very time consuming and glitchy is there a better way?

    2. As stated above the dynamic link can be very glitchy. Some times when I copy a clip from the Prem pro time line and then Ctrl+ Alt+ V in to the AE time line it doesn’t copy or it copies something that was previously copied to ram. Is there a settings tweak or something that I can do to resolve that? Oh and in many cases I have to shut down AE and Prem pro to fix it other times I have to shut down my pc.

    3. For those windows vista users when you load AE cs3 do you notice that certain effects in the Windows OS just stop working? Like fades and screen animations? Is there a tweak to correct that?

    4. Finally, is it normal for AE to load up 3 or 4 instances of itself to ram?

    PC specs for those that are interested.
    Pentium D 3.40GHz
    3GB pc 5300 ram
    3 seagate sata 3.0 HDD 120 Gb, 320GB, 500GB
    Nvidia Geforce 8500 GT 512MB
    Intel Chipset
    Windows Vista Ultimate
    Thank you in advance for any and all help.

    Don’t copy the timeline.
    Save in PP.
    then in AE import > pp project (chose the timeline you want)
    work on in AE
    save
    file > dynamic link >import AE project.
    choose the comp you want.
    drop into timeline, render.
