Pass through Blu-ray video from MKV to MP4 with FFmpeg:

You can pass though MVK content ripped from a Blu-Ray disc to mp4 for playback on web browsers and PS3 without sacrificing video quality and having decent sound with the Linux based FFmpeg CLI command.
You will need to convert the audio to AAC but can have a high bit rate for decent Sound.

To do this have this command:
ffmpeg -i original.mkv -acodec aac -b:a 400k -vcodec copy new.mp4

Replace original.mkv with source file name and new.mp4 with your new files name.
This will just pass through the MPG4 video for to the mp4 container without any compression and convert the AC3 audio to AAC at 400KB/s. (AC3 is not suported with mp4 container).
