Sony Vegas is a popular and powerful video editing program. Files saved with a .veg extension are Sony Vegas project files. They are not completed video files that can be played like a .avi file. To convert a .veg video file to a .avi format file, you will need to render the .veg project file into a completed video. Sony Vegas offers many choices for output format, one of which is .avi.
