[FieldTrip] biosemi bdf >> read_24bit error + no events found

[Paul Zerr]

I have not. I can read in the header but that's about it.
I don't have any older matlab versions here to test it with either.

>From what I understand ft_preprocessing should be capable of reading bdf's
directly with only the file name as input arg.

Greetings,
Paul Zerr
