ah! found this on ed's forum:

Vegas 5.0b introduced a bug in reading some of the renderers. If you get this error, you can request an update of Neon which fixes this problem by responding to your original e-mail (send a mail to Gary Kleiner). In the meantime, the following workaround will allow Neon to run:

1) Open Vegas and your project
2) Choose File - Render As
3) In the type dropdown box, pick MPEG1
4) In the type dropdown box, pick MPEG2
5) Press Cancel to exit the Render As screen.

Neon should now work until you exit Vegas.

worked.

Yep, that's the solution. The shipping version will not get this error. However, I never updated the demo so it still requires the work-around.
