Are you talking about just any version of Vegas, Dave, or the current Sony offerings? Does dragging a vob file into Sony Movie Studio work as well?
I don't remember if it accepts vob and I'm not able to get to the computer I have installed on for at least a few hours. I'm really curious to know what you know about it...
I have Vegas 8, which is a few years old. Your version is from the 50's. I'm not sure which versions it works on. It works in Sound Forge 10, too. Also -- VLC, which has some conversion options. Don't know about Movie Studio, but I bet it works there, too. No apparent sync issues.
Some VOB files will even work in SAW's video viewer, but editing and playback, especially across splices, gets really dicey due to the poor frame-to-frame accessing of VOB's, as I understand it. Which seems odd, since you can do frame-at-a-time manipulation on a DVD player. Anyway, gave up using VOB's in SAW long ago. Way better after converting to DV AVI.
That's all I know.
