Recommendations? Video reencoding

[MooseUK]

I'm looking for some software that will easily allow me to change the encoding of video media. I have a couple of files in Matroska format at the moment, and would like to convert them to something more mainstream. However, ideally I could get some software that allows me to go from any-to-any (assuming I have the correct codecs installed? Don't know if that is possible or not).

Any recommendations?

If you can find an old copy of visualhub, I use that. They went out of business. I think handbrake will do mkv files.
