Hi Ramiferous! I haven't actually played with ffmpeg before, but I'll assume that the command you provided is correct. This would be my solution to your problem:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

for i in *.{mkv,webm}; do

    ffmpeg -i "$i" -codec copy "${i%.*}.mp4"

    rm "$i"

done

You could also take out the rm command and run

Code:
rm *.{mkv,webm}

manually afterwards so you can first make sure that files were actually converted how you wanted. Hopefully this works for you :)
