Is Vegas Capable of placing one video track into another.

Sort of like a news piece when the reporter sits in the stage and starts to tell about some earth quake meanwhile a small video is played next to the head of reporter. The small video would actually be footage of the earthquake and the town that got hit.

Are there any plug-ins tha allow this?

You don't need a plugin for this - just put the video you want to play in the other video on the layer above the "main" video....and crop it to be smaller and positioin it where you want.

It's called "Picture in Picture". If you have the VV manual it explains it a little bit better than I just did - but it's very very easy to do.
