Vegas Pro 8.0 burns Blu-ray BDMV format to BD-R and BD-RE recordable media.

For the video, you can use MPEG-2 or AVC encoding. The MPEG-2 video templates have an average bitrate of 25Mbps. The AVC video templates have an average bitrate of 15Mbps. For the audio, use Dolby Digital 2.0 or 5.1 (AC-3) encoding at 192Kbps or 448 Kbps respectively. On a 25G single-layer BD recordable disc this gives you approximately 3h42m for AVC or 2h15m for MPEG-2.

You can create your own templates if you need to adjust the bitrates. Also, you can use standard definition MPEG-2 formats for very large amounts of video on a Blu-ray disc. Vegas Pro 8.0 does not currently have the ability to burn BDMV to DVD recordable media.
