For PS3, taken from h264enc's ps3hq preset

force_cfr:frameref=3:mixed_refs:bframes=3:b_adapt=2:b_pyramid=normal:weight_b:weightp=2:direct_pred=auto:aq_mode=1:me=umh:me_range=24:subq=7:mbtree:psy_rd=0.8,0.2:chroma_me:trellis=1:cabac:deblock:8x8dct:partitions=p8x8,b8x8,i8x8,i4x4:nofast_pskip:nodct_decimate:level_idc=41:aud:vbv_maxrate=20000:vbv_bufsize=20000:threads=auto

if you want to convert the result to a Blu-ray directory structure,
you'll have to learn how to use tsMuxeR :)
