[Eeglablist] Can i filtering in two different moments?

Hello Andreas Widmann and Makoto Miyakoshi, when i was filtering epoched data, hoped this would improve the quality of the processed signal, but i was wrong. I corrected the function eegfilt to eegfiltnew. Thank you so much for help me.

 Hello Tiago,

filtering of epoched data is actually not recommended. You will introduce edge effects. From your code example I do not yet understand why you would want to do that. Could you please explain the intention behind you approach?

Please note that pop_eegfilt is broken and deprecated and was replaced by pop_eegfiltnew (see http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fpsyg.2012.00233/full for details).

Best,
Andreas
