Dynamic Link breaks EVERY TIME with After Effects into Premiere

[j_mro]

This is one of the most frustrating things I've encountered from Adobe Premiere. The Dynamic Link breaks every time I save a project in After Effects. I will save my "linked" After Effects project, go back to Premiere and it breaks the link EVERY TIME. This has been going on so long I just re-link it every time and say "Im switching to Da Vinci". I have the most up to date Premiere and After Effects. 

This doesn't happen just once, or right after I open the program. No names are changed, no locations of projects or files change, just every time I hit save....boom, Premiere blows up.

This is unacceptable from a company like Adobe and I can't believe this hasn't been fixed. 

See link. Screen on the right in AE and then left is PP. You can watch it happen over and over and over again, just like I do!

I had exactly the same problem. The solution so far has always been to check the file names and file paths for special characters.
Characters like ä,ö,ü,...or even a space at the end of the file name or path always cause these problems for me.
If these characters are deleted, it always works perfectly.

This is brutal!!!!  It's like working on a house of cards, ready to fall apart. I get the AE project to show in Premiere and I can render; next day it's broken and I have to jiggle this and waggle that and then it works, usually after re-importing the AE sequence. The re-linking never ever works. Brutal. I tried renaming the AE composition to not have spaces as recommended. It worked today; will it work tomorrow? Not betting on it.

2025 and still the same problem. Another one switching to Davinci.

I understand the frustration, that would be a pain. Which keeps me wondering ... so many users have dynamic link processes without issues (mostly) and some have a nasty horrid mess with dynamic link.

I wish I had a clue why!

I call it Dramatic Link...

Hey hey, that's a hoot!

I don't trust DL work. So I never ever have a comp longer than making sure it 'works' for what I need, then I export a clip out of Ae to replace the comp.

I've not had troubles so much myself, it's just ... well .. cleaner down the road, it seems.
