Could you please upload one of the original .scn files to
http://qa.openmicroscopy.org.uk/qa/upload?  You may need to Zip the file
first before uploading.

The '-bigtiff' argument to bfconvert is only valid for converting to
TIFF/OME-TIFF files - it won't do anything if you are converting to
JPEG.  If you see an error message when using that option to export a
TIFF file, or the resulting file is not a readable BigTIFF, please let
us know.

Regards,
