Problem with Fieldtrip conversion

[Michael Wibral]

Dear Vladimir,

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, i started looking into it and I really like the first impression (not the speed though :-)).

I solved the problem in the meantime. The reason was related to an unsuccesful update attempt. Sorry for the confusion! Could you let me know (and other FT users) the logic behind specifying the data twice, i.e. once as the loaded variable in the workspace and once as a filename. Is this related to memory mapped file use?

Michael
