well, that's weird...

1. the webm extension is only used when vp8 codec is selected (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~tristan-brindle/oggconvert/trunk/view/head:/OggConvert/ocv_main.py#L240)
2. it seems to me the transcoder only knows about the "OGG" container and "else"... no webm at all (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~tristan-brindle/oggconvert/trunk/view/head:/OggConvert/ocv_transcoder.py#L63)

... so i would conclude oggconvert actually does not support creating webm containers.
