1. A computer-implemented method for avoiding re-encoding of video sequences, the method comprising:
performing one or more encoding operations on a source video sequence to generate a first encoded video sequence that includes a first set of random access points;
transmitting, to a video editing application, a list of the first set of random access points; and
receiving, from the video editing application, one or more points of interest, wherein a first point of interest included in the one or more points of interest is modified by the video editing application to coincide with a first random access point included in the first set of random access points.
