Hello, I'm having trouble using MD/Ensemble analysis tool. When I try to check a MD trajectory generated by CHARMM (version C33b1), I get a "DCD format error 1" message.

Hi Lilian, It means that your DCD file doesn't start with the proper "magic number" that all valid DCD files are supposed to contain. Perhaps if you sent me your trajectory files (directly, not via the list!) I could provide more useful information. If they are too big for email, you could FTP them to one of our servers. Let me know if you need/ want to do that. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu On Apr 23, 2010, at 1:37 AM, Lilian OLIVIERI wrote:

Hi again Lilian, Based on the files you supplied it appears that the DCD magic number has indeed changed (from 84 to 164) for DCDs from CHARMM v33 (and presumably later). A new magic number typically indicates that the file format is no longer compatible with files with the old magic number, and that is in fact the case here. If I change Chimera's DCD- reading code to just treat 164 as if it were 84, other error checks fail. From my tests it also appears that VMD 1.8.7 can't read the new- format DCD either. Since the new format is undocumented AFAICT, I will be getting in contact with Dr. Karplus to see if I can access CHARMM's DCD-writing code (which isn't free) in order to add the ability to read the new DCDs to Chimera. I'll keep you in the loop on that. --Eric On Apr 26, 2010, at 11:11 AM, Eric Pettersen wrote:
