I was really hoping that would work.
Looks like it’s time for a re-edit 🙁
If you have the time, send the bad veg to Sony and they might be able to fix it.
Info on doing this is at

See if you have a file titled mymissingvideo.veg.bak anywhere on your drive. Ideally, it’s in the same folder as the bad veg file.
Try opening that one. You’ll need to select All Files (*.*) in the dropdown menu.
If it doesn’t open, move it to another folder and rename it to mymissingvideo.veg and try opening it again.
You have nothing to lose by trying this and, hopefuly, everything to gain.Mike

You could also try EffectsLabDV, formerly AlamDV.

In the menu on the left-hand side, set the Smoothness (under Keyframe Interpolation) to ‘0’. If you have more than one keyframe, you’ll have to do this for each one. For future reference, setting this to ‘0’ before you do anything will avoid this problem. It’ll also set all future keyframes in the event to ‘0’.

Not being an HDV owner, all I can do is pass along what I’ve read in other Vegas forums. This thread from the Sony site may be of some help.
Failing that, send an email to tech support. -
Is this what you’re looking for?
Go to Control Panel/System Devices.
Right click the cam, choose Update Driver. Choose to MANUALLY install it. (Don’t search, I will install)
Now, browse to the Sound, Video, Game controllers.
Then browse to Sony. Not the Sony Electronics folder. In there, you’ll find a driver called DVHS. Double Click it. It will update. You should see the cam come in then. -
Any spot I’ve ever done for broadcast used the entire time and then some.
To explain further. I start the spot 15 frames early. No audio and the video is an extra 1/2 sec. before the 00:00 mark. At the end of the spot, I let the video run for an extra second or two at the end as well.
Why do I do this? While most larger stations are automated and have the clips on hard drives somewhere, a lot of small market stations still rely on someone pushing the right button at the right time. By having that extra little bit of video on the head and tail, you won’t see any black between spots. And if your spot gets an extra second or two of air time, so be it 🙂Mike

I know nothing about the FX-1 but the following was posted on another Vegas forum. Hope it helps.

You’re welcome Geoffrey. Have fun with Vegas & DVDA and don’t be afraid to ask if you have any problems. This is a great community with a lot of very helpful people.

Steve, glad you got it worked out.
Now Editing with one hand… all right – no comments from the peanut gallery…
It’s hard but I’ll restrain myself. I can’t promise the same from anyone else though 🙂
