    Question about video editing, Vegas Pro 11.0

    Let's say that I'm taking a source WMV file and want to watermark and render the full video, plus five minute clips. Should each render come directly from the source file? In other words, I shouldn't watermark the full video, and then chop that video into five minute clips... right? Always from the source?

          in my experience, and i love vegas video, there are better programs out there to make bulk clips and that will do it faster.

          I've been out of video editing a while now but I wouldn't see much quality loss if you rendered the watermark for the whole thing and chopped it up with a splitter program after though. Especially if it is for promo uses.

              Yes absolutely do everything from the original file. Everytime you re-encode, you lose quality.

              Mark the entire video as one region, then each 5 minute clip as a region then use Tools --> Scripts --> Render Regions
              .

                  you can render the whole thing in Vegas and then cut with a program like http://boilsoft.com/videosplitter/ which will split the full video into clips without re-rendering it. Since it's not re-rendering it's also super fast.

                      I have had problems with both Video Splitter and Video Charge in the past. I don't think I really want to go that route, I will do what WC recommended. Thank you.

                          I am always baffled when people describe some crappy wmv, mpeg or other heavily compressed file as a "source".

                              Then I suggest you check the definition of "source."

                              Raw is not always available.
