[FieldTrip] different frequency bins

Dear Johanna,
the problem is that the trial length you put into freqanalysis differed
across subjects, leading to a different frequency resolution across
participants. FieldTrip realizes that and errors because 1.9998 is not
2.0001 ;) I would propose you re-do the frequencyanalysis with the same
time window/trial length for all participants.
Maybe you should first check why your trials have different lengths and
if that is desired or you did another mistake somewhere in your
analysis. If you want to different trial lengths, you can use a padding
cfg option in ft_freqanalysis to pad trials to a fixed length.
Good luck ;)
Best,
Jörn
