MVX AI vs AutoEdit for music videos in Premiere Pro
Short answer: both are Premiere Pro plugins that build a music video rough cut from the footage you shot: the song, your performance takes and B-roll. AutoEdit Music Video Mode is a one-time purchase for Premiere Pro 2024+, and its page asks for MOV or MP4 files and takes that run the full song. MVX AI is a subscription for Premiere Pro 2023+, and it places takes that cover only part of the song where they belong.
