Dear Michael, There is no extensive support for making movies in SPM8 and Fieldtrip as far as I know. However, there is quite a simple generic way in Matlab to make movies from anything you can plot in a figure. Try help getframe help movie2avi In the tool invoked by 'render' button in 3D Source Reconstruction someone has already added these commands to the movie displaying code there (see around line 582 of spm_eeg_inv_visu3D_api.m). So if you write global MOVIE in the command line and then run a movie in this tool, you'll get a movie stored in the variable MOVIE and then you can save it using movie2avi. For the movie that you can generate using the 'mip' button see the code starting around line 96 of spm_eeg_invert_display.m. You can modify it in a similar way. One way to make a movie of scalp topographies via the GUI in SPM is to export your sensor data to image, open the image using CheckReg button, right click on it and choose 'Movie tool'. You can then scroll through the Z axis which is basically what you want and save it as a movie. If you want to use the plot from the reviewing tool, you'll have to write your own bit of code using spm_eeg_plotScalpData.
