Yes you can.

Effects - > Metadata

Drag onto 1 clip

Effects Control - > In the 'Metadata' dropdown, replace "Source Timecode" with File Name (or 'Project Clip Name' if you're working with subclips that you made from one file)

Once you have it looking the way you like on the one clip, copy it and then select all the clips in your timeline except the one that already has the effect.

Right click on the selected clips and click Paste Attributes (or use the keystroke) to apply the effect (and only the effect) to all clips.

No way to do this automatically within Premiere.

Might want to have a look at this plugin. Could be one of its features.

yes.

for example i have 3 diffrent clips/videos

1.my yoga class

2.my gym

3.my dance

so i want "my yoga class" text automatically genrate on the time line hope you get it

after that i will render out that and that will be hard coded in video.

(basically i dont want each time to copy file name and write text on time line you get it)
