Dear all,
This was indeed the case!
Within the tapas_physio_read_physlogfiles_brainproducts.m function, I could indeed define the event value.
Goodluck to you all.
Best,
Evelyne

Dear Evelyne,
Hmmm, I think that your question is a bit out of scope for the fieldtrip discussion list, because your problem seems constrained to the a problem with the PhysIO toolbox (which uses SPM, which uses Fieldtrip). It’s great that you already have identified that calling ft_definetrial directly works fine, which makes it unlikely that there’s a bug in the fieldtrip codebase.
I have never worked with this PhysIO toolbox myself, and the combination with the matlabbatch functionality of SPM does not make the detective work straightforward.
My first hunch would be that the (possibly hardcoded) definition of the eventtype/eventvalue is incorrect for your data. I checked the TAPAS code on github, and found the following function: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/translationalneuromodeling/tapas/blob/master/PhysIO/code/readin/tapas_physio_read_physlogfiles_brainproducts.m__;!!HJOPV4FYYWzcc1jazlU!65cMoGmD91tFeJcdTZy2Itp4CXx1PaExrrhVzOP3df3NwkoRpyakwdsrZ_pN1YNlisx_YHltsb1Pan3447jnr5jG$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/translationalneuromodeling/tapas/blob/master/PhysIO/code/readin/tapas_physio_read_physlogfiles_brainproducts.m__;!!HJOPV4FYYWzcc1jazlU!5H90oiOLBBCjs7OHHJjplyfnTinW865-Zaby40nl4EbZ9Bda9wsf7NqLgE9m8mYrIAP9JANXm36nW5J0LyH6YNuL50-nLh9h6Ob8-w$> , which looks as if this is the one where things might go wrong. Specifically, starting from line 54 in said function, the eventvalue that defines the ’trials’ within PhysIO is defined hardcoded as ‘R128’, which does not seem to be present in your data.
Could this be what is causing your issue? Given that the eventvalue is hardcoded (i.e. non configurable as an option in your matlabbatch) you can not get it to run without making a change to your version of the code. I would assume that - if this is indeed the cause of the problem - the change of ‘R128’ into ‘R 1’ would be sufficient, and that this will work for all of your recorded subjects. A more principled solution would be to liaise with the PhysIO developers (or to submit a Pull Request) to discuss the possibility of making the eventvalue for the brainproducts data configurable.
If things are unclear, or on the off chance that my suggestions don’t address the problem, please feel free to drop by at the office (01.158) with some data, code and versnaperingen, so that we can have a look at it together.
Best wishes,
Jan-Mathijs

Dear all,
My name is Evelyne and I am just started to explore fieldtrip.
I use fieldtrip to define trials in physiological recordings to estimate physiological regressors for MRI preprocessing.
However, when using the physio toolbox, no trials are detected within my data.
When I run the separate ft_definetrial function, I get trials, but I seem to fail to include this in my matlabbatch.
This is my output with error message:
