I am attempting to load an EEG folder/file set.
I have provided a list of the file extensions of the file/folder list as
well as the full text of the errors.
——
ERROR:
"
EEGLAB error in function loadeeg() at line 141:
Unable to perform assignment because the left and right sides have a
different number of elements.
"
——
File extensions in single eeg folder:
- .eeg
- .erg (2 files)
- .ent
- .epo
- .etc
- .snc
- .stc
- .vt2
- .vtc
- .avi (30 files)
Please let me know if I am missing something.
Steps to generate the error:
1) Download and install EEGLAB compiled.
https://sccn.ucsd.edu/eeglab/download.php
2) Open via shortcut on desktop.
3) Click on <File>
<Import Data>
<Using EEGLAB functions and plugins>
<From Neuroscan .EEG file>
This opens the "Choose an EEG file -- pop-loadeeg()" window.
4) Browse to and select my .EEG file.
5) Click <Open>
This opens the "Load an EEG dataset" window.
'Auto' is the only value set for "Data precision in bits" text box.
The other text boxes are blank.
6) Click <OK>
The cmd window displays many lines with some values: baseline: 29812
sensitivity: 267780708920287297636.000 calibration: 259611
for example.
"EEGLAB error" window pops up.
"EEGLAB error in function loadeeg() at line 141:
Unable to perform assignment because the left and right sides have a
different number of elements."
7) Click <Ok> on error pop-up.
8) Click <File> <Import Data> <Using the FILE-IO interface>
** I have tried with both Folder and File (selecting the specific .eeg
file. Same error result. **
After much trial and error, I attempted to create a set from the files I
have, which did open with a much older version previously.
After attempting to add the .eeg file, I noticed an error in the cmd prompt
window, which was not previously displayed when I was using the other
methods.
"
Converting file to EEGLAB format...
Error using eeg_import
.eeg files not from BrainVision are currently not supported.
Error in pop_studywizard (line 364)
Error while evaluating UIControl Callback.
"
I'm not sure if that is useful information or not.
Then I downloaded the zip version from the full EEGLAB from your download
site.
After starting the MATLAB I downloaded today from the actual web site and
browsing to the EEGLAB directory, I typed "EEGLAB" and the application
loaded.
In the EEGLAB window, I again attempted using FILE-IO.
The app prompted me that FILE-IO needed to download, which I clicked Ok,
the app installed FILE-IO, and then I selected the .eeg folder and clicked
Ok.
Now I have a different message:
"EEGLAB error in function ft_notification() at line 74:
Unrecognized function or variable 'ft_version'.
This is a problem with FIELDTRIP.
The Fieldtrip version you downloaded is corrupt.
Please manually replace Fieldtrip with an earlier version and/or email the
Fieldtrip developers..."
Please help.
