Why we like it

A single-purpose panel that does exactly two things — search for a text block and replace it — across clip and marker names and metadata. The undo on the replace step means edits from a run can be rolled back. Version 1.0.0 keeps the scope tight.

What is Search and Replace?

Search and Replace is a panel from MoovIT GmbH built for Adobe Premiere Pro. It finds and renames the names and metadata of video clips and markers in a project. The workflow rests on three inputs: the text block you are looking for, the replacement, and the search range.

With those defined, the panel searches for matching strings and replaces them with the new value. Its two functions are named directly: Search and Replace. It also handles reversals — the panel can undo all the changes made by the replace function.

This is the first version of the panel, released as 1.0.0 and last updated in May 2023. It's compatible with Premiere Pro 7.0 and later. The panel is listed here as free; see the developer's page for current licensing details.

Frequently asked questions

Does Search and Replace work with older versions of Premiere Pro?

Search and Replace lists compatibility with Premiere Pro 7.0 and later, so it covers versions from that point forward. The panel is built specifically for Adobe Premiere Pro rather than other editors. If you're on a version at or above 7.0, the panel falls within the stated support range; anything below that sits outside it. For the exact release you're running, the developer's page from MoovIT GmbH is the place to confirm current compatibility before installing, since support ranges can shift between updates.

Can changes made with Search and Replace be undone?

Search and Replace can undo all the changes made by its replace function, according to the notes for this first version. That means a rename applied across your search range can be reversed rather than left in place. The panel's job is to find a text block and swap in a new value across clips and markers, and the undo covers those replace edits. If a replace doesn't land the way you expected, you can roll it back through the panel instead of correcting each entry by hand.

Is Search and Replace free to use?

Search and Replace is listed here as free, so there's no price attached to it in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, so the developer's page from MoovIT GmbH is the best place to confirm current terms before you rely on it. The panel handles searching and replacing names and metadata for clips and markers in Premiere Pro, and that functionality is what's offered under the free listing. Check the developer's page for the latest details on availability and any conditions tied to using it.

Does Search and Replace rename markers as well as clips?

Search and Replace works on both video clips and markers, finding and renaming their names and metadata within a project. You set the text block to look for, the replacement value, and the search range, and the panel applies the change across matching strings. Markers aren't left out — they're covered alongside clips under the same workflow. Because you define the search range yourself, you control how wide the rename reaches. That makes it a single place to adjust clip and marker text across a project.
