Dynamic Link AE Comp Not Updating On Export

I have noticed that some dynamic linked AE comps do not export properly from ME. If I make a change inside AE, it will update in PP timeline fine, but the export will at times render out those comp sections as it was in it's previous state. I have tried clearing cache and that doesn't seem to help. Restarting AE and PP seem to be the only thing that get's it to sync properly when I export. I am on latest AE & PP (22.4.0) Windows 11.

Are you sending the Premiere timeline to Media Encoder AFTER you update the AE comps? If the sequence has already been sent to the queue (but not started yet) then it won't reflect any new changes made to the sequence.

Assuming that you're doing everything correctly, one temp fix is to render previews and tick the "use previews" box on output; this will at least force ME to use the most updated version of your sequence.

Yes I am waiting until everything is final before I send to ME. I have used the render previews option at times as well and it does work great especially if you change the sequence settings from the default mpeg to something like prores, but I hope adobe addresess this issue so there won't be a need for a workaround. Thanks!
