EDFread giving an error Error using signal.internal.edf.validateEDF

Error using signal.internal.edf.validateEDF (line 55)
Expected Reserved to match one of these values:
'EDF+C', 'EDF+D', ''
The input, 'EDF', matched more than one valid value.
Error in edfread (line 113)
signal.internal.edf.validateEDF(filename, fileInfo, version, startDate, startTime,...
MatLab wont let me attach a file as edf so I have put it into a zip file. I cannot edit the file and when I used the public function it shortens the signal. I cannot edit the edfread function as it is an internal function. A work around would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much for your support
Regards,
Scot

Hi Scot
I have brought this issue to the notice of our developers. They will investigate the matter further.

This relatively simple addition to the file validateEDF.m fixed this problem for me:
When I tried to read/load an EDF file using the edfread function I got the same error as OP:

Solution:
- Click on the underlined signal.interal.edf.validateEDF in the "Error using singal.internal.edf.validateEDF" error message displayed in the Command Window panel. A pop-up box/window will appear.
- In the upper right of the pop-up window that appears, click on the underlined View code for signal.internal.edf.validateEDF. The code file validateEDF.m should appear in the Editor panel.
- Scroll down to lines 70/71. This is the line of code that is resulting in the error.
- Change the second argument of the validatestring function from {'EDF+C', 'EDF+D', ''} to {'EDF', 'EDF+C', 'EDF+D', ''}
- Save the file validateEDF.m. A pop-up window may appear saying "validateEDF.m" is read only. Click on Overwrite for the changes to take effect.
Now, lines 70 and 71 of the file validateEDF.m should look like this:

This fixed the issue for me, and I was able to read EDF file contents using the edfread function. I primarily work in Python, so please take my MATLAB advice with grain of salt.

Thank you also, this allowed me to open some semi-broken EDF files that I had been sent which had all sorts of wierd strings in the 'Reserved' header entry.
Brilliant!

Why is the previously working edfRead by Brett Shoelson no longer possible to use?

How can I fix the following problem:
Error using signal.internal.edf.validateEDF
Expected Reserved to match one of these values:
'EDF', 'EDF+C', 'EDF+D', ''
The input, 'BIOSEMI', did not match any of the valid values.
Error in signal.internal.edf.edfinfo (line 27)
signal.internal.edf.validateEDF(filename, fileInfo, version,...
Error in edfinfo/readHeader (line 212)
~, ~] = signal.internal.edf.edfinfo('edfinfo', fid, ...
Error in edfinfo (line 173)
obj = readHeader(obj, filename, fid, fileInfo);
