In the "old days" of (broadcast-grade) videotape machines, there was an "E-E" switch on the VTR.
If the switch was off, you wouldn't be able to monitor the signal feeding the machine.
When the switch was on, the signal feeding it passed through to it's destination (monitor, switcher, router, etc.).
Not sure if this helps you but that's what I understand EE to mean.

Sounds like he's looking for some sort of Realime 'Pass Through' device that would change what it's fed into 16x9.

I don't think Vegas can do this Realtime 'Pass Through' method.
If he wanted to, he could Capture then 'Render As' his desired size/format with Vegas.

I thought I had heard of this with Hardware.
I'm thinking 'Digital Rapids' Hardware... but I'm not sure.

Well I'd disagree with it being the 'old days'. ;) VTRs are still widely being used (in broadcast) and sold.

I don't think Vegas will do EE as it's not a real-time/linear system.

Electronics to electronics Is what I was told it stood for, but the descriptions of what it does are correct.
