[Eeglablist] Import problem with non-English filename

[Dagfinn Matre]

Hi

I am experiencing a problem when importing a dataset (BrainVision format) which filename includes the non English character 'å' (it's the letter 'a' with a small circle above and used in the Scandinavian languages). This is the error message in Matlab after selecting File -> Import data -> From other formats using the BIOSIG toolbox:

ERROR SOPEN BV: could not open file ...\Fp6_dag1_espen09_14.01.09pånytt.dat
Reading data in BrainVision format...
??? Reference to non-existent field 'POS'.

Error in ==> sread at 53
        StartPos = HDR.FILE.POS/HDR.SampleRate;

Error in ==> pop_biosig at 136
    DAT=sread(dat, Inf);% this isn't transposed in original!!!!!!!!

Error in ==> prefaster40 at 40
EEG = pop_biosig(strcat(datapath, vhdrname),...
>>

Renaming or deleting the letter does not help.

I hope someone has a solution to this one :)

Best regards,
Dagfinn Matre
