For those not familiar with Sony Vegas, it's thought to be the geek choice for video editing on Windows. It's much cheaper than the heavyweight solutions in the industry, but at the same time very powerful and robust. Let's have a look as to what's new in its 9th version.

This is a little off topic. But, the mention of AVCHD and Vegas Pro is timely for me because I've been trying to figure out how get my clips off my camera for viewing.
I have an hg20 camera. I use a Mac and Linux. Simply viewing my video clips has proven to be a difficult task.
I can archive my video for long term / future use by imaging my camera's disk. But, I don't have a way to watch my clips without encoding them first, which takes a tremendous amount of resources. So, copying AVCHD to something like DVD is appealing to me. I'd like to be able to dump AVCHD files onto a DVD (like mp3's) and let the hardware decode it. But, that's proven to be not so straight forward either.
I'd be happy if I could just create DVD quality video from my clips. Currently, I've done it with iMovie and iDVD. But, it takes hours to create a few minutes of video and the quality sucks, too.
There must be an easier way.
Any suggestions?
