Tom, yours is not "Platinum" version, it is a BASIC BAREBONES version which IS why it is cheap.

Sony Vegas has a pretty confusing array of versions and levels, the newer versions and levels can easily reach $500 level if you like.

Version 11 of Platinum level included HD video so going forward ANY version higher than 11 will be able to deal with pretty much any video out there.
