1080p quality starts with your converter. A good converter to use is Xilisoft HD Video Converter (http://www.xilisoft.com/hd-video-converter.html). Click link for free download.
Download > Install > Open converter > Insert skate. clips > Change output profile

Hit the convert button. Done.
Now, once you have your converted clips, you're going to want to put them in your Vegas (http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/download/updates/vegaspro9).
Open Vegas > Change project properties
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-rTrGOyh190g/UCLBtfb5GeI/AAAAAAAAAgI/F9LQ_lCER_A/s519/2.png
Every time you put a clip in vegas, right click the clip, then click on properties. Always disable resample.

When you are done editing the video, you'll need to render the video with the following settings. Click file > render as
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-PVxU1ptCnA8/UCLBurPse8I/AAAAAAAAAgg/Pz8qANgxuyE/s519/6.png
Render as > custom (video)
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-kRJYpfpLn3Y/UCLBtSWzRBI/AAAAAAAAAgk/UNsCxMx_epA/s519/3.png
Custom (video) > custom (audio)

Custom (audio) > custom (project)
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-MHQaQiNlVps/UCLBuD5rQhI/AAAAAAAAAgY/f1_HD8NsJek/s519/5.png
Click ok. Click render. When it's done rendering, you'll have a 1080p High Definition video.

Don't wanna sound like a dick, but where is the point in converting a not even 720p30 video to blown up 1080p60?

When it's done rendering, you'll have a 1080p High Definition video.
well, you do get a file at said resolution. but the quality of the image is worse than what you started with, and the video demands way more resources to play, espess in an online scenario, like youtube etc. for optimal quality on your footage, edit the flv files directly, export as a container (quicktime or similar) and upload. this way the footage will only convert once, at youtubes own servers.
upscaling does NOT help with picturequality, stop wasting your time

i might try that out and see what happens. but...
i have used the settings above, and the video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aukOpKGcN0M) looks completely fine.

umm, about this, I got a new laptop and decided to get new and better setting and then I remembered this was on fluckit. Problem I have is, I can't drag my clips into vegas.. like it doesn't support the mp4 files.. and it also seems that after converting the audio runs behind the video..

I started having that problem when I got my new computer as well. I think it has something to do with the new Quicktime settings. When I downgraded my Quicktime, my mp4 files started working again. However, since I have a cap card, I'll never need to convert again. I really don't need the settings above since ive got the cap card. I don't know about the audio issue. I've never had it. If it helps, maybe you should try converting to different file types to see which one will work.

from what ive always thought and read......
Sony Vegas doesnt like mp4s "sometimes", you would be in better "editing" shape if you use Avi (but then the file will be huge)...
also you could try a HDV codec, heard those run ok with vegas (not sure though)
or try a mpeg2 codec..
also heard if you use "Handbreak" to convert your clips to mp4's some reason Vegas reads those, again im not sure just things to try

I hate avi because of their size. in mpeg2 and hdv codecs i got them in vegas but i still have the audio problem, I'm gonna try another converter because it seems that the converter is doing that.
one other thing though, I tried mov codecs because i have just made 2 video's with clips that were recorded to mov from a nikon d3100, but i can't get them in vegas, while had just used them for those video's..
edit: indeed, like you suggested, when converting with handbrake, vegas does play mp4 haha, and i even got rid of the sound problem, i don't seem to get it in 1920x1080 though.

Some programs have different versions of File types When you render video.
Sometimes the Video Format simply isn't compatible with the video editor.
You may get it to work a few times but that halt in production, bump in the road.. stops reading your shit, likely not compatible.
The only thing about switching up programs is different versions of the same file type, comes with possible change in quality.
Just what I've learned figuring my setup out anyhow!
If you capture in a program called virtualdub There is an option to make that capture "Full Process"
Without selecting that option your output AVI file won't be compatible in vegas.
Look around, if there's options toy with them.

half way there i guess
edit: btw for anyone who wants to know-
mp4 and mov are both JUST "Containers" - they both hold the same Codecs basically (with few minor changes or course)
just seems mov is more "strictly" Mac based
you never want to edit in H.264 codecs, as they are "Delivery" Codecs for making your video highly compressed but keep damn good quality (think "save for web")
now i know some programs edit h.264 "Natively" (i think new cs6 Premiere does)
but most programs HATE it
of course Avi is "Uncompressed" so the file is huge cause it retains all the little details, lovely if space isnt a issue
mpeg2 should work best for vegas imo, then just Render/Export out from vegas in Mp4(H.264)
Lots of Options! ahhhhhhh
Wish i could help out more man, i would
