Found a bug to watch out for in Vegas Pro 9.0b, SCS has confirmed the bug.

I sometimes need to provide my XDCAM SD (DVCAM-mode) footage to an editor that can't work with .mxf files, so I do a lossless smart render to DV AVI. Well, this is broke in Vegas Pro 9.0b, you'll just get an empty DV clip. It does work correctly in Vegas Pro 8.0c.

Normal rendering to .mxf works correctly in Vegas Pro 9.0b.

Good to know, Eugene. I'm going to sticky this thread until a fix comes out.

Thanks for the head up!

Has now been fixed in Vegas Pro v9.0d... thank goodness!
