Vegas -> ProTools

I need to output to ProTools which is what my sound post house uses. I've tried using AAF but it returns "Some Renderings are Missing" on their machine. Has anyone had any success with this workflow?

Yes I've exported to ProTools on my own system using AAF.
The only problem was using time dialation in Vegas ,via Control Drag of an event, couldn't be translated but the undialated sound was substituted.

A more reliable way of exporting is to use Cui Bonosoft's EDL Convert Pro and export an EDL Convert compatible XML from Vegas, via the script supplied with EDL Convert. Open the XML in EDL Convert and save it as either an OMF2 or directly as a ProTools 5 session.

ProTools will open either but the problem of time stretched/shortened audio (if you have done that in Vegas) will still exist.
