Hi Gautam,
This is because a single WIFF can contain multiple "samples", each of which translate to a separate
mzML document. Each document can't be named the same, so we append the "sample name", or if that's
not unique, we add a duplicate count like "(2)". An override was recently added to msconvert for
setting the output filename, but I expect that would explode for a multi-sample WIFF file (which are
not at all uncommon).

Hi,
When using msconvert on ABI wiff files, it seems to suffix the
converted output file with the word "-Sample". Is this intended? This
suffixing does not occurr with Thermo .raw files, so why should it
occur with wiff files? Here's an example output:
===========================
R:\programs\windows_programs\msconvert\msconvert.exe --filter "msLevel
2-" --mzXML --64 --mz64 --inten32 F:/JHU_NHLBI_MS_FILES/
Melanies_iTRAQ_data/wiff_files/Fraction1/Fr1_1.wiff
format: mzXML (Precision_64 [ 1000514:Precision_64
1000515:Precision_32 ], ByteOrder_LittleEndian, Compression_None)
indexed="true"
outputPath: .
extension: .mzXML
contactFilename:
filters:
msLevel 2-
filenames:
F:/JHU_NHLBI_MS_FILES/Melanies_iTRAQ_data/wiff_files/Fraction1/
Fr1_1.wiff
processing file: F:/JHU_NHLBI_MS_FILES/Melanies_iTRAQ_data/wiff_files/
Fraction1/Fr1_1.wiff
writing output file: ./Fr1_1-Sample.mzXML

The version of msconvert being used is shown below:
