Dynamic Link is indeed super handy, but it's also slow. Instead of just reading a clip, Premiere Pro actually needs to read an After effects comp and stream rendered frames to it. Sure it got a lot faster in recent releases, but it's still most of the time slower to request a frame from an After Effects comp, than jusr read a frame in a file. As for knowing what to fix, it depends. if you know beforehand that your footage is shaky and that you'll need to stabilize it, it is sometimes faster to process the full shot once, than to process the 10 cuts you're going to use. Also, if you have long takes, and depending how you work, you can discover issues during editing, and fix them at that time. A bit of audio here, a shake there. But 50 shots to run through Warp Stabilisator isn't fixing an issue. It's a huge issue, better handled outside of Premiere. What I would do is edit the film, and then see how many clips I have to fi, fix them in AE, and reimport them back in Premiere (instead of DynLink, for efficiancy purpose). But of course, editing, like many orther crafts, can achieve the same result in many ways, and the best way is always the one that better suit your needs. Hope this helps, Seb
