See help(readMat), which says "From Matlab v7, _compressed_ MAT
version 5 files are used by default [3]. These are not supported. Use
'save -V6' in Matlab to write a MAT file compatible with Matlab v6,
that is, to write a non-compressed MAT version 5 file. Note: Do not
mix up version numbers for the Matlab software and the Matlab file
formats."
This should do if you have access to Matlab and you're in charge of
the MAT files.
Hope this helps
