Hi all,
I'm trying to use the -bptf function in fslmaths to temporally filter some functional volumes. 
I have two questions:

1. I just want to check my understanding of how to specify sigma. If I want to retain 
frequencies between say .008 and .08 Hz, with a TR of 1.42 s, then the correct syntax 
would be:

fslmaths input_4D.nii -bptf 44 4.4 output_4D.nii

(e.g., .08 Hz = 1 cycle every 8.8 vols; sigma = 8.8/2 = 4.4)

2. When I run the above command on my data, where each 4D file contains 840 volumes, I 
get an out of memory error. Can anyone recommend a work around that does not involve 
changing the hardware?

Thanks for your help,
Alex
