if compatibly is your aim you can't create 1080p60 then. you can not simply change the level it will not work you need level 4.2 for 1080p60.

so you can either make a video that is 4.1 complain(720p60 or 1080 interlaced with 60 fields or 1080p30) or you just ignore it and hope it works on some systems. it's not impossible that a level check is ignored and when the bit rate isn't to high it may just work.
4.2 is outside the BD spec so it's not that important for older hardware player.

don't take this as a last word i'm only interpreting the spec here.
