Sony Vegas Pro 9
Sony Vegas Pro 9 is a popular real-time video and audio non-linear editing application that includes
uncompressed SD and HD support with Intensity Pro and Intensity Shuttle. Sony’s included support for
Blackmagic Design means that when the Blackmagic Design driver is installed, Vegas Pro 9 will capture and
play back video with Intensity. Vegas Pro 9 must be installed on your system before running the Desktop
Video installer.
Sony Vegas Pro 9 can capture and playback with sequences of different formats within the one project.
For example, Intensity can capture 1080i59.94, 1080i50 and NTSC video to corresponding sequences
within the one Vegas Pro 9 project.
