Dynamic link workflow advice needed

[Danny Nieder]

Hope this old thread can find its way back to someone’s attention.

In addition to the question I posted above, I have another with the workflow suggested by Petros.

When I get into AE and do a pre-compose, I am getting a new comp that includes the entire media clip from Pr, not just the subset of in-out that was in the timeline in Pr. That would mean i have to re-edit this clip down manually to match what i have in Pr. Am I pre-composing wrong?

Thank you for your help on this.
