I don't have an RT2000 system, but it does capture from a
Matrox G200 and G400 analog system and it does work with
IEEE 1394 interface.

Vegas does a really good job of real time playback in
preview mode. I think this is one of the real strengths of
the program. If you have a lot of stuff going on it does
drop some frames, but it doesn't have to prerender anything
to actually work. It makes timing and setup stuff really a
snap. I've tried lots of programs and I definitely like
this one the best as far as interactive editing goes. The
audio tools are really good too (at least from a video
guy's perspective). There are not a lot of canned video
effects, but I don't like to use a lot of cheesy
transitions anyway. The compositing works really well if
you have enough frames per second (I use 29.97 whenever I
can).

HTH,
