[Eeglablist] the number of frames does not divide the number of columns in the data (vhdr file)

Hello,

I'm working with .vhdr files (recorder through BrainVision's Pycorder) and
for some reason I've started getting the following error when importing
files.

* eeg_checkset error: the number of frames does not divide the number of
** columns in the data.*

We've been collecting data for a few months with no issues and all of
a sudden this started happening.

Nothing has changed about the experiment or how we record the data.

I see that a similar issue has been posted on under the thread
"eeg_checkset error when importing CNT".

My concern is that there's no explanation for what causes this error
and maybe there's a deeper underlying problem here that maybe messing
up the results.

Also, I have been able to get around the error message by settings
EEG.pnts = size(EEG.data,2) manually but, again, my worry is that
there's another problem here that I'm overlooking.

I have noticed that if preprocess these files there are a lot rejected
artifacts (though maybe this is just a coincidence).

Finally, I noticed that EEG.pnts is always +1 than the number of
points in the data file.  I've looked at the script pop_loadbv() and
see that this might happen if the temp_chan variable is empty.

I've looked at the header files and don't seen any mispecification of
the number off channels, and can't catch a discrepancy between these
files and the files that don't cause the error.

Any input on this would be a tremendous help. Thank you in advance.
