Hi, I tried to reproduce this, but I did not succeed. mdrun always seems to write the correct z size in all output files. Are you sure mdrun outputs a file (and which file, if so), or is it another Gromacs program that produced the file with 0 z size? You can simply manually correct the size in

Dear Dennis, I believe your problem is due to the fact that when the autocorrelation is done on a dihedral angle a cos function is used instead of the angle itself. This is good to account for periodicity. This function is not implemented in the -P 1 2 3 ... if I recall correctly. I thin
