[Mne_analysis] mne_make_movie cannot find data set

[Matti Hamalainen]

Jeff, 

Briefly,

1. mne_make_movie can only produce movies from averaged evoked response data

2. mne_compute_raw_inverse can produce continuous raw data source estimates from a set of labels.

3. If you have trigger points defined, you can also load raw data to mne_analyze and view source estimates at individual epochs.

4. If you load the raw data to mne_browse_raw, you can start mne_analyze from there and interactively pick time points to show source estimates corresponding to, e.g., epileptic spikes.

The options have been hardly used in practice because most of the time researchers are interested in calculating, e.g., time-frequency representations, which leads averaging of the transformed epochs in the source space.
