[FieldTrip] Matlab Error

[Arnaud Delorme]

Dear Mehreen,

This is likely due to your MATLAB file not being in a format known by File-IO.
Better to load it from the command line

fileData = load(‘-mat’, ‘myfile.mat’);
rawData = fileData.data; % I am making that up. I do not know where the data will be in your file

Then use EEGLAB menu item “File > Import data > Using EEGLAB functions and plugins > From ASCII/float file or MATLAB array”

And enter the name the MATLAB array (rawdata)
See this page for more information https://eeglab.org/tutorials/04_Import/Importing_Continuous_and_Epoched_Data.html#importing-a-matlab-array

Best wishes,

Arno
