Anyone have any idea how to make a strobe effect or trail (the cheapo effects found in almost every camcorder) in Vegas? Haven't found anything
 
Trails or strobe effect? To me, those are two completely different things. For trails, play with motion blur & supersampling via your video bus. (make sure you can view your video bus, then right click & insert a motion blur envelope and super sampling envelop - adjust to taste). Be forewarned ... your system will CHOKE when trying to preview these, if you crank them up med-high, and will take much longer to render.

Strobing, I'd play with either cutting the footage up, or adding a black layer above, again cut up into SHORT segments (few frames each), then put a fade in/out transition at the beginning & end ... if that's making sense, you should see the picture comein & out quickly ... like a strobe, or what I'd imagine it to look like with missed frames, etc.
