Can you try this version of mri_convert and let me know if it works?
ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/transfer/outgoing/flat/greve/mri_convert
Copy it to $FREESURFER_HOME/bin (make a backup of the one that is there)

Dear all,
Our group is having trouble unpacking functional scans.
If we ran the command: unpacksdcmdir -src ./all/ -targ ../bold/ -fsfast -run 5 bold nii f.nii
We get the following error message: mri_convert ./all/64806020 ../bold/005/f.nii --sdcmlist ../bold//bold/005/flf -ot nii --nspmzeropad 3 --in_type siemens_dicom ERROR: mri_convert child process exited abnormally
We have recently upgraded the scanner (from Trio to Prisma), and since we've never seen this error message before with Trio, it might be related to the scanner upgrade. We used both Freesurfer 5.1 and 4.5, but got the same error message.
The flag with ‘-scanonly’ will run, and we could unpack anatomical scan without any issues.
The log output looks like this (we’ve been trying to unpack runs 4-11):

Please let us know if you have any ideas how to fix this issue. Thank you!
