Hi,

I have some footage that I shot in PAL (as I nomally do in Denmark). I need to convert it to an NTSC DVD to be send to USA. Is this possible in Vegas 7, and how?

Thanks in advance.

This does not require and special/tricky workflow.
Load the PAL footage on the Vegas timeline, renders as MPEG-2 using one of the NTSC DVD render templates, author/burn DVD.

I didn't even have to resort to Vegas when I recently needed to convert PAL to NTSC. Just did it in Nero 6 (NeroVision Express) , under MORE/Video Options select the video standard desired for the DVD, If it needs to it will re-encode the video to match.

We discussed this a while back here.

Vegas does a decent job for the price.
