[Eeglablist] reading only half of large .cnt file

[Kathrin Müsch]

Dear all,

I am trying to load a large 32-bit .cnt file acquired with Neuroscan’s Scan 4.5 software (5000 Hz sampling rate). However, only about half of my data will be loaded. The datafile is indeed very large (8 GB).

The total number of samples in the datafile is read out correctly (h.numsamples in line 259 = 17,000,000) but only 8,000,000 sample are read (because of the specification of “nums” in line 327). I also get an error message when I try to manually set sample1 and ldnsamples to the desired values because it falsely assumes that my last sample is 8,000,000.

Is this a bug in the script because nums (line 327) is set to a false value or do I need to find a workaround? I also tried to use the memmapfile option without any luck.

Any help would be appreciated,
Kathrin
