If you are recording HD onto SD I am guessing that you are recording in AVCHD as apposed to HDV. If it is the former then your options may be limited. Amazon are doing Vegas 8 Movie Studio Platinum Ed for less than ?50 here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-Vegas-Movi ... B000U71HP0
I'm not sure about it's abilty to export to tape so I would check that first.
Ulead Video Studio is another possibility. I have used neither so can't comment too much.
