I noticed a missing quote at the end of sourceext... line, then also a missing quote in the "if..." line between mp4 and the closing square bracket and maybe a missing whitespace between the mentioned quote and closing square bracket.
Code:
    rm ${sourcelocation}/*.avi
    rm ${sourcelocation}/*.mpeg
    rm ${sourcelocation}/*.mov
    rm ${sourcelocation}/*.mpg
    rm ${sourcelocation}/*.txt
    rm ${sourcelocation}/*.nfo

could probably be reduced to
Code:
for ext in avi mpeg mov mpg txt nfo; do rm ${sourcelocation}/*.$ext; done

HTH
