Difficulty reviewing mff file

Bugs
1

Hello,

We are trying to open an mff file in a Mac (OS X El capitan) using Matlab MCR(R2015b)

Everytime I try to import an mff file, I get a message from brainstorm asking to download the MFFlibrary which I did
Then, a following message ask me to restart brainstorm and Matlab but despite quitting and restarting brainstorm, the same happens again.

Is there something more that I should do ?
Maybe a way to force restarting the MCR in addition to brainstorm ?

Here is the error :
(** Error: Line 163: in_fopen_mff>downloadAndInstallMffLibrary (line 163)
** Please restart Matlab to reload the Java path.
**
** Call stack:
** >in_fopen_mff.m>downloadAndInstallMffLibrary at 163
** >in_fopen_mff.m at 41
** >in_fopen.m at 108
** >import_raw.m at 126
** >bst_call.m at 28
** >tree_callbacks.m>@(h,ev)bst_call(@import_raw,[],[],iSubject) at 615)

Thank you for your answer

Dear Margaux,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to read EGI-MFF files with the compiled version of Brainstorm. You'd need a Matlab license for this.
We use the mffmatlabio library from EEGLAB for reading these files, and we do not have any easy solution to compile Brainstorm including this library.

I will add a clearer error message when trying to load a MFF file with the MCR version of Brainstorm.
