You can also select "MP4 (stream copy)" option to remux MKV to MP4 without re-encoding, and make a web-optimized faststart MP4 file.
Optional. For further editing requirement, switch to each tab, where you're able to change video/audio codecs, add or remove subtitles from MKV, cut and crop video, edit video chapters, normalize audio, customize ID3 tag, etc.
