All these filenames are too similar. You mentioned at least 3 different files.
mris_info
fs_R-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii (error)
mris_info
fs_R-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.R_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_R.surf.gii (ok)
mris_convert
fs_L-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii (error)
ls -lt
fs_L-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii (ok)
Make sure the file exists and provide full path to mris_info/mris_convert
command.
If you continue to have problems with mris_info/mris_convert, share the .gii
and we will take a closer look.
Best,
Yujing

It seems to me that it failed to open the .gii file.
Can you check if
'fs_R-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii' exists and you
have the read permission?
'ls -lt fs_R-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii'

Hi I realized that the error occurs only with the Lh- file, that also gives
this error
mris_info fs_R-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii
** failed to open GIFTI XML file
'fs_R-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii'
gifti_read_image() returned NULL
Is this a freesurfer error or is there something with the file?
thanks
Karin

The output from mris_info looks fine.
Are you still having trouble creating .annot file from a label.gii file? The
command looks like this:
mris_convert --annot label/rh.aparc.annot.gii surf/rh.white.gii rh.aparc.annot
You need to provide full path to your input files.

Your mris_convert command looks correct. I'm able to do the conversion like
this with dev version:
mris_convert --annot label/rh.aparc.annot.gii surf/rh.white.gii rh.aparc.annot
I'm wondering which Freesurfer you are running. If you do 'mris_info surf.gii',
what does it report?
Best,
Yujing

Hi
I'm trying to create an .annot file from a label.gii file using an HCP
fsavarage.surf.gii file (eg mris_convert --annot my_label.label.gii
fsaverage_template.L.surf.gii lh.my_annot.annot). However I keep getting the
error
** failed to open GIFTI XML file
'fs_L-to-fs_LR_fsaverage.L_LR.spherical_std.164k_fs_L.surf.gii'
mrisReadGIFTIdanum: gifti_read_image() returned NULL
Is there a better way to read/open CIFTI files using mris_convert?
Best and thanks
Karin
