I don't think the above basename args do what you want.

I think you want something like:

===== begin script =======
#!/bin/sh

BASE="/home/storage/users/craig/Desktop/dw"
IN="in"
OUT="out"

for f in *.flv; do
	MP4="`basename "$f" .flv`.mp4"
	ffmpeg -i "$f" "$MP4"
	mv "$f" "$BASE/$IN"
	mv "$MP4" "$BASE/$OUT"
done
===== end script =======
