We are very happy to announce that the Vegas 4.0b update has full support for the Panasonic AG-DVX100 24p camcorder. Vegas will interpret footage shot by this camera in 24p or 24p "Advanced" mode as 24p progressive footage on the timeline. Rendering, Print-to-tape, and External Monitor preview are all fully supported in 24p using either standard or advanced pulldown.
Also, Vegas 4.0b can now to render 24p MPEG-2 (with TFF and RFF pulldown flags) for DVD, which DVD Architect can burn to disc with no recompression. This is 20% more efficient than compressing to 60i, and that savings can be used for additional footage or higher bitrates (better quality).
In addition, Vegas 4.0b now allows project and render resolutions of up to 2048x2048, allowing editing of HD-sized projects. Also, you can render HD resolutions to MPEG-2, RealMedia, Windows Media, QuickTime & AVI.
I will be around for the next day or two to answer any questions you might have about these new features, and then I'm off to NAB for the week to help inform the rest of the world.
