Dynamic Link between After Effects and Premiere on interlaced timeline

We are editing a documentary in premiere for broadcast in europe - so we use an interlaced timeline. (1080p 50i - or 25i if you want)..

I have an after-effects-template for the animation of the start and the credits at the end - but the after effects project is 25p.

Playback of the animation in after effects is fine - the text moves smoothly as expected. But when I link the animation to premiere via dynamic link, the text still moves smoothly but additionally performs one big jump back and forth after a few seconds. It looks like there is a keyframe is wrong or missing. Could it be that there is something happening between those frames?

How can I check?

Is it possible to set my after effects composition to interlaced so I can see those issues?

    I think I found the solution:

    I had to select "Preserve frame rate when nested or in render queue" in the composition settings of the 25p composition or in its nested sub-composition.

    Then the keyframes stay the same even after dynamic linking to the 50i timeline in premiere.

    Anyone? Do I have to set the animation to 50p to have a correct effect in 50i?

    I set the after effects project to 50p now and the keyframe jump is visible in AE as well. So maybe 50p is the right setting for dynamic link to a 25i premiere timeline?
