Converting VC1 inside mkv to a x.264 in a mkv


I have a video file that has it's video in vc1 format. My graphics card ahs very little support of this file type, so I was wondering if it were possible to convert it to x.264.

Here's what ffmpeg -i gives right now:

Code:
Input #0, matroska, from 'movie.mkv':
  Duration: 02:23:46.04, start: 0.000000, bitrate: N/A
    Stream #0.0: Video: vc1, yuv420p, 1920x1080 [PAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 23.98 tbr, 1k tbn, 23.98 tbc
    Stream #0.1(eng): Audio: dca, 48000 Hz, 5.1, s16
    Stream #0.2(eng): Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16
    Stream #0.3(eng): Subtitle: 0x0000
    Stream #0.4(rus): Subtitle: 0x0000
    Stream #0.5(spa): Subtitle: 0x0000
I've never done a conversion, so I have no idea what to do
