Update:

I spoke with a co-worker about this issue. He has a Blu-Ray burner that he only uses regular 4.7 and 8.5 GB DVDs to burn in Blu-Ray format with Sony Vegas. So the trick is that you must have a Blu-Ray burner, even though you don't use Blu-Ray discs. You have to make sure that you are using the Sony AVC codec when you do this.

He burns AVCHD discs all day with no problem, and watches them on his Blu-Ray player. So, it works like I said about the HD DVD discs, but requires a Blu-Ray burner to do it.

But for HD DVD (the defunct format), you don't need an HD DVD burner with Pinnacle 12 to burn HD DVD readable media.
