What It Does
Multi Replacer swaps multiple footage items in your timeline simultaneously. Select the layers you want to update, load your new files, and the script replaces them in one action. All transformations (scale, position, rotation) stay intact.
Built for template-heavy workflows like slideshows, photo galleries, video walls, and openers where you need to update dozens of placeholder images without manually replacing each one.
Key Features
Batch replacement. Select multiple footage layers and replace them all at once with new images or video files. No need to click through each layer individually.
Transformation preservation. The script maintains existing scale, position, and rotation values, so your new footage drops into place exactly as the placeholder was positioned.
Insert into comp. You can also insert new footage directly into selected compositions, not just replace existing layers.
Simple interface. The workflow is straightforward: select layers, click the Replace Images button, choose your files, done. No scripting knowledge required.
Who It’s For
Useful if you work with pre-built templates where swapping placeholder content is routine. Video editors handling client projects with consistent layouts (real estate listings, corporate presentations, event recaps) will save time. Motion designers building reusable templates for others to customize will appreciate the speed.
