This is interesting. I have not vidded with vobs because FCP finds them unscrubbable, so I've never been able to do what you do. I always make .dv files and, when I have had data loss, have had to re-clip them.
One thing I do that you don't mention here is to export a draft of the vid after each editing session and save it to multiple drives and/or on a CD or DVD. That way if the project and/or clips go boom, I have a draft to refer to when rebuilding.
Anyway, this is really helpful info. Would you consider dropping a link to it on mac_vidding_101 for folks who might need it?
