Stupid Question: How do I output a finished project to my camcorder
via Firewire? Is it done within Vegas? Or within VideoCapture?

You use Vegas Capture for that. The latest version is 2.0e I believe. Just connect your DV Cam to your capture card via your firewire cable. Then open your finished AVI into Vegas Capture. (The avi must have been rendered using one of the DV templates in Vegas) Then you should be able to hit the print to tape button underneath the preview window.

If all goes well, your camera will start recording and the file will be played back into it. This is assuming you have device control from within Vegas capture. If not, just start recording on your camera manually and then hit print to tape from Vegas Capture.

So.. but.. One *must* render to an AVI to be able to Print-to-Tape?
Are there any file size limitations involved here? Either in WinMe or 2K?

there is a file system limit with FAT32-formatted drives, no limit with NTFS drives (NT/2k only)
