[Eeglablist] Passing vector elements to pop_select() 'no channel' argument

Wed Apr 5 20:36:20 PDT 2017

Hi Laura,

Just a guess. You want to replace some bad channel by interpolating it. If
this is true, I think it's not correct to remove them prior to
interpolation, or you'll interpolate another channel instead, and if the
channel to remove is the last channel, it would encounter dimension errors
similar to the one you showed. So, you may need to remove 'pop_select'
command from your code.

Best,
Chao
