ok i have absolutly no idea how this has happened, but somehow i managed to delete my .veg file for the video i was working on (i save it to a different directory as all my files so i have no idea how this happened). however i had a completly rendered and filtered version of it as h264 mp4 file (however i dont keep my .avi uncompressed files after ive converted to h264, takes up too much room).
if i still wanted ot make a few changes, would i expect a lot of quality loss if i were to load the mp4 into vegas make my changes (id have to reget the changed scenes from the source again but thats not a problem) but essentially if i wanted to change a few things, is it worth loading the mp4 into vegas, making my changes (by removing the sections, regetting the scenes from the source, putting it into the gaps, then having to rerender as an uncompressed and then avisynth it again.
basically i wouldnt really need to do almost any filtering (to avoid overfiltering the footage) since its all alrdy there, i could even render the scenes with the exact same avs script then putting the filtered scenes into the gaps so as to keep it consistent. would this screw the vid up a lot? or barely noticable?
