Dynamic link from Premiere CC 2020 to After effects CC 2018?

I don´t have cc2019, i passed directly from cc2018 to cc2020, but installing it wouldn´t solve my problem, and for the job a make cc2018 is enough.

The problem with the workaround suggested is that is more time consuming. I need to send several cuts of rough material placed in order and layers from PPro sequence to make tracking, color correct, and more. So first i need to dynamic link it to AE cc2020, save the proyect with compatibility with cc 2018, open the proyect in cc 2018, make the AE work, and replace the PPro sequence i dynamic linked to cc 2020 with the final comp from AE CC 2028. Yes, it´s a workaround, but not the best way to work. Maybe i´ll start from scratch, make a new clean install of windows 10 and leave it untouched, install only after effects and media encoder and try again. Damn, this is a big pain in the head!

Anyway, thanks for your help David.

Sorry to hear that. Out of curiosity, have you tried the track in CC 2019? CC 2018 isn't available from the Creative Cloud app anymore, so I'm unable to do a test of my own, but you do at least have the workaround of doing the entire track in 2018 then upgrading it to a 2020 project. You could also file a bug with the information and screen recording you posted below, along with the key detail that you opened the same project from 2018 in 2020.

Hi David,

tried your suggestion.

Made a partial tracking of the shot in AE cc2018, saved proyect, opened proyect in CC2020 (two ways tried: by Open-> proyect .ae and by Import->proyect.ae).

No changes, tracking the rest of the shot in cc2020 still too slow, for about 40 times slower than in cc2028 😞

The only thing i have done to windows 10 is applying a customization over its interface to look like Windows 7, as i dont like windows 10 interface at all. Could the problem be related to this? I remember that in CS6 there was an issue with the video playback in the Premiere Pro timeline monitor, and it was related to the Aero Desktop option switched Off. Then you switched it On, and the issue was gone. Could it be something similar with Windows 10?

I haven't seen any speed differences in the tracker in 2020, and no changes have been made to it in a long time. To get you going at least, you can track the clip in 2018 then update the project to 2020 just by opening it, then you can Dynamic Link that project. 

I'm interested, though, to know what would happen if you take the clip and setup that's working fine in 2018 and either track part of the clip or even the whole clip, where you know it tracks quickly, save that as a project, then open that in 2020 and run the track again (either finish the partial track or overwrite the existing keyframes, it shouldn't matter). Does 2020 track this fast? From your original post it sounds like you're importing the clip into each version of AE and trying the track, but try preserving as much of the 2018 setup that you can by saving that project. 

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out.

Sorry that Premiere Pro 2020 sequence can not be dynamically linked with the After Effects 2018. However, we'd love to help with the After Effects 2020 issue. Could you share your system specifications (CPU, GPU, RAM, OS) and details of the footage you are working with (frame rate, frame size, format/codec)? If possible please share a screen recording of the issue so that we can understand it better.

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Nishu
