Hi Rebecca, I see. Generally, it should behave in the same way as cross sectional processing:
If both aseg.mgz and aseg.auto.mgz exist, and they are different, then the file aseg.manedit.mgz is created from the differences (and if an aseg.manedit.mgz file also exists, then its contents are merged with the newly created aseg.manedit.mgz). If aseg.manedit.mgz exists, then its contents are merged with aseg.auto.mgz (which is the output of the automatic segmentation program mri_ca_label). The default action, if neither aseg.manedit.mgz nor aseg.mgz exist, is to copy aseg.auto.mgz to aseg.mgz. Can you check (with a simple edit) in a cross sectional run, if it behaves as expected, then check what happens in the long if you do the same steps? Could be that there is a bug in the code for -long processing, but not sure.
