Did you try ripping it first as 720p (dvd5) and then re-encoding it to mkv?
I always rip mine to 720p (dvd5) and then re-encode them to avchd mp4 using enchd_1.2.221.0. I usually get a 2-3gb file with it and the movie is in hd

Are you saying rip it with DVDFab using settings for 720p (dvd5)??..Will the output file be ISO??? Im confused...I was wanting my end result be a MKV file that is around 2-4G's..Thanx for the reply

When dvdfab is done ripping your blu ray to an iso format, click finished and eject your blu ray. Then click on blu ray ripper and do a drag and drop of the iso into dvdfab(if your version supports it). then select mkv for your output format. It should re-encode the blu ray to mkv format that should be under 4gb

Are you running a purchased copy of dvd fab? Demos will leave a water mark. You have to also select only the audio track that you want. If you select every track on the blu ray, it will combine all the tracks together.
