[Eeglablist] trouble with importing EGI .mff files

[Joseph Dien]

You might give my EP Toolkit a try (https://sourceforge.net/projects/erppcatoolkit/).  It reads mff files and saves EEGlab files.  If it doesn’t work, send me a note and a copy of the data file.  I’m going to be getting to work on my backlog soon.  Note that it relies on EGI’s mff I/O code and that hasn’t been totally finished so issues could still arise.  EGI tells me that Arno has been contracted to finish this code (nudge nudge).

I can import a file that has been filtered in Netstation into EEGLAB, but I cannot import any files that have been epoched in Netstation. Specifically I am getting the following error when I try to import an epoched .mff file.
