AE to Premiere Dynamic Linking - Audio needs to conform everytime in file that hasn't changed.
Hi, I’ve been running into this bug for a while now. I’ve been running into a lot of issues with reconforming audio that come from linked After Effects files. I know it’s not the best workflow to have audio coming from my AE files, but in my use case, I need these sounds to always be perfectly synced with the AE comps, that are also shared with team members.
But these are the issues i’m getting:
-when using Premiere with Dynamic Linked AE files I have to typically have to wait for audio to conform on my AE files everytime I open a file, even if it’s been untouched.
-It also happens if I make a change in a AE comp (not to the audio), even a comp that’s not being used by Premiere, it will still think it needs to reconform the audio that IS being used in Premiere.
-Occaisionally, it will randomly unconform without reason.
-Lastly, If I have my After Effects closed, it will sometime not conform that audio until I re-open that After Effects project.
One thing to note, is that our setup is using LucidLink for all file access. I’ve tried setting cfa files to sit next to the files on the server. But this creates another bug, where a new .cfa file are created everytime and it clogs up our files since they sit right next to the .ae file typically. I think this is a seperate bug that should be looked into regarding LucidLink.
When I set .cfa files to be stored locally, is when I still get the bugs mentioned above.
Is there a way to have the audio in an AE dynamically linked file be cached in the file, so it doesn’t need to reconform if nothing has changed?
