Best format for HD movies via USB?

have an LG 65LW6500 HD LED TV.

I would like to able back up my blue ray movies on to file format and watch them via at USB stick on the USB port. Checking with the LG Website I need to use FAT32 format files (windows), but the LG manual does not specify what type of File format to use. I would like your ideas about what the best type of Files to convert the disc to MKV? Mp4 ? or another suitable format etc. I have a a 16g and 32g USB sticks so I lean to more to retaining definition rather than over compacting the file.

Any advise would be appreciated as I have not much idea,

Thanks in advance.

    Fat32 can't support a file more than 4GB, so you will need to compress your movie. If you tv supports NTFS, use this instead of FAT32. Most tv supports mp4, so you can start with that format first. Try to play a smaller mp4 files to test your tv. Also Check out the manual that comes with the TV, they often specify the format needed.

    Usb and HD films should not suitable. You are going to need to join through an HDMI cable to the HDMI sockets on the tv and HT. You would additionally try factor connections R/G/B rca connectors when you would not have HDMI sockets on either the tv or HT.
