If it’s a 64-bit version of Vegas, Frameserver 3.0 should work. If it’s the older 32-bit Vegas, please try the older build of Frameserver 2.14. Any issues, please report it on github.

Good suggestion.
The beta version can be downloaded from https://frame-server.googlecode.com/files/fssetup-beta.exe . Please install as usual, it should detect if you have Premiere Pro CS4 and choose the right install dir so that the plug-in appears in both Premiere Pro and Adobe Media Encoder. Please reply here on how it worked for you, whether it worked fine or if you saw issues.
Note: You may see a ‘a newer version is available’ notice in the Frameserver UI, please ignore that 🙂

Frameserver is not specific for Premiere.
The core idea is to take audio/video from your favourite application and pass it to another application without a full render, thereby saving on disk space and time. The initial reason frameserver was developed was to use video encoders which were working as standalone apps and converting say AVI -> MP4, but were not working as plugins for apps like Vegas. So if you want to use such an encoder with Vegas, you have to render uncompressed AVI from Vegas (huge disk space) and then run your encoder on this uncompressed AVI. Instead with the frameserver you create a tiny intermediate AVI which is the output of Vegas and input to your encoder, in real time.
Though it was created for this purpose, frameserver can be used between any application in which it works as a plugin and any other application which accepts standard AVI files.

If the other application is capable of running frameserver as a plug-in, yes it is possible. For e.g. you can frameserve from Vegas -> Premiere, do some edits in premiere and frameserve from Premiere to another instance of Vegas without doing a full render to file anywhere.
However frameserver does not support AE or Photoshop yet so have to render/save out from these apps. Within the supported list of NLEs you can do this back and forth frameserving.
