[Eeglablist] EEGLAB 2022.1rc pre-release

[Delorme, Arnaud]

Dear all,

It is this time of the year. Your help is invaluable in making sure each bi-yearly release of EEGLAB is as stable as possible. Although we have new automated tests<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/sccn/eeglab_tests/runs/7622602258?check_suite_focus=true__;!!Mih3wA!FMSgDiS4qUUU-VVi32gk4mHQ7b_vliggVE7BniG1uYY4FFXKuIyHpkXd_F1YxStO2bR5iGNo8RelHFKtbHIHu9II$ > to ensure EEGLAB stability, we are always grateful for people that can take a few minutes to run their EEGLAB scripts on the new version and check that everything works as expected.

Testing the new EEGLAB version is very simple and may be done from within EEGLAB.
Follow the instructions below to preview the new EEGLAB release.

1. Go to EEGLAB preferences and select the option “If set, show advanced options…”
2. Close (press OK), select EEGLAB preferences again, and select the option “If set, show pending plugins…”
3. Close (press OK), this option allows you to see plugins that are still pending inclusion and pending EEGLAB releases as well.
4. Then restart EEGLAB. A message should appear indicating a new version of EEGLAB is available (EEEGLAB 2022.1rc - rc is for release candidate).
4. Let EEGLAB install the new version and check that everything is working for you. Your old EEGLAB version will not be erased.

Do not forget to revert your preference afterward.
Changes since the previous version are shown here<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://eeglab.org/others/EEGLAB_revision_history.html__;!!Mih3wA!FMSgDiS4qUUU-VVi32gk4mHQ7b_vliggVE7BniG1uYY4FFXKuIyHpkXd_F1YxStO2bR5iGNo8RelHFKtbMGDNS8S$ >.

The automatic installation will not delete any of your files, and the new version of EEGLAB will be installed in a new folder that you can later delete.
We do not advise trying the pre-release if you are starting with EEGLAB or MATLAB.
