SHR parser error

Hello.

I Have for some time now used a parser based on the shr.parser in the spike development kit to extract amplitude, timestamps and frequency data from .SHR files taken by a SA44B. But the files from the newer versions of the spike software is showing an error message that the files can’t be opened. Does anyone know what could have caused this?

Quadsat,

Spike does some minimal checking of the format to verify that it can parse it.

– It checks the file signature, if you have managed to alter it in the process of parsing the file yourself, this could cause it.
– It checks the SHR file version. The current version of the Spike software will parse file versions 1 and 2.

Up until now, we have stayed backwards compatible, meaning files generated in older versions of the software can be parsed in newer versions of Spike, but older versions of Spike will not be able to parse the newer versions of the SHR files. Is that the possible case here?

Regards,
Andrew
