HELP: Edited low quality video, not full quality

[sealilly]

Total screw up on my part and praying for simpler fix: Edited video with hundreds of clips for client, overlays, audio, etc. After rendering I noticed my screw up, the video I edited in main timeline was a lower 720 version, not the full 1080 version and of course my final render is very soft. Please don't ask how I did this, that's a whole different story. I assume my only remedy is to start this project from scratch using the 1080 in main timeline and start editing all over again but hoping form a miracle from the pro's.


These clips were edited from a 720 version, not the 1080 version by mistake. There are 252 clips

As your video clips are FHD, then when rendering, try using the 'Same as First Video Clip' option.

In any event, you don't need to "start this project from scratch using the 1080 in main timeline", rather save a copy of your VSP and then change the project properties match that of your video clips. If you've used Mercalli then you'll have to reanalyze the clip but not much more.
