How does it render

What actually happens in the rendering process when you have a clip that is saw 200 frames long & you either stretch it or shrink it to say 300 or 180? If you took the origianl 200 frames & decided upon exactly 100 frames or 400 frames would the job be done differantly because in this second senario you could copy every second frame or duplicate each frames.

Sorry, but I'm unsure exactly what you're asking...

If you take a clip and extend it by dragging on the right side of the clip in the timeline, if you have the option for looping selected, the clip will just start to replay.

If you're talking about changing the speed of playback, Vegas can insert extra frames as it does if you've go to 29.97 frames per second from 24. You can control what happens to an extent by selecting options as interpolate.

Probably the best way to answer your question though is for you to try it. Take a test clip on the timeline, and do whatever -> then import the rendered avi to the timeline and see what you've gotten.

If you enable Supersampling when playing around with framerates, Vegas will create new interpolated frames - it takes longer to render, but the results can be stunning.

It depends on if the clip was set to resample or not. If not, it will just drop or duplicate frames as needed. If resample is on (or "smart" -- auto) then it will blend frames to create "in between" frames. It will do this after deinterlacing (on the input side) and before field rendering (on the output side).
