Using "Mpeg Video Wizard", I cut out songs in a musical[mpeg2] and put them in the timeline. Objective: To add song title files before each song and possibly fade in and out of many of the songs.

I understand that I can add the title files and combine all the songs and tiles into one mpeg2 with no loss of quality. Correct?

BUT, if I fade in or out of any song, there will have to be re-encoding, therefore quality loss. Correct?

So, here's my theory; What if I cut into seperate files, just the brief parts of the beginnings and ends of each song that I'm going to apply the effects [fading], then only those small parts of the song will lose quality. Isn't this true?

Then I can combine it all together and mostly have the same original quality.

Womble only encodes the changed portions of the video, not the whole thing, so you don't lose quality.
No need to jump through hoops :)
