I use handbrake for that, and I'm happy with it.

Handbrake would indeed be the best tool. Although I don't find it's interface confusing, the existence of Vidcoder proves that there quite some people that do. Vidcoder groups its settings differently and/or easier, but for the rest it is Handbrake under the hood.

Vidcoder has the option to be used as portable application. If that is your thing, of course.
The easy path is usually downhill...

Actually, there are many online apps can convert mpg video to mp4 video for you, such as zamzar, Acethinker Video Converter, mediaconverter, etc. They are totally free, and you don't have to download or install anything.
