True, but any form of compression will lose quality (bad)

No. You keep a Bank of just good parts.

*steps away from computer* I have done all I can. If you don't care about quality, then compress to XviD anywhere between Field Quantizer 31---> Field Quantizer 4. you will have lots of free space.

I did not use Xvid and I know it will make my video in bad shape if I compress in DivX/Xvid also do the worst part ^_^;;. Just I found another compression to my .vob :D and right now it did not do loose even video quality ^_^;; just I remove the audio I guess :>P.

So ok I think I will go on your idea Phantas....

You can always do what I sometimes do, if you want to have everything around to edit with. (Since I usually go in with a solid idea of what I want, but like having everything to play with for the little stuff.) I do a DivX encode of everything. It won't be too terribly big. Then I lay the clips with that so I know exactly what clips I'm using, then I basically do what Phantasmagoriat said and put the VOBs into virtual dub and encode the clips that I need into a lossless codec. Then I replace the DivX clips with the lossless ones in my timeline, then go through and put the finishing touches on. If its a small part that will probably only be in that vid, I just encode the small section that's in the vid. If its a scene that I know will probably be used again, I encode the entire scene. Then once you are done, you can either keep all the lossless clips, delete them all, or decide which ones you want and which ones you don't.
