Hi,
Since last year Megin has changed the head shape digitization (extra points) from point to string; however, MNE had been supporting only
FIFFT_DIG_POINT_STRUCTfor those. This leads to missing extra points if the data is recorded using new DACQ systems from MEGIN. Therefore, the support for the string typeFIFFT_DIG_STRING_STRUCTwas required.The issue was resolved early this year in MNE-Python and during summer in MNE-MATLAB (please see the passed test results and detailed conversation here: https://github.com/mne-tools/mne-matlab/pull/36/commits). Furthermore, it was updated into FieldTrip and BrainStorm; however, SPM12 is still missing this update.
Here, I made the required changes to the
fiff_read_meas_info.mandfiff_read_tag.mfiles to support reading the string-type digitization.Thanks.
