[New Format]: Inscopix

[CodyCBakerPhD]

What format would you like to see added to NeuroConv?

Inscopix finally releases an open API

Does the format have any documentation?

Not as far as I can tell, but could be inferred from some of the source code at https://github.com/inscopix/py_isx/blob/main/isx/__init__.py

Existing APIs for format

https://github.com/inscopix/py_isx

Do you have any example files you are willing to share?

Test files found with releases: https://github.com/inscopix/py_isx/releases

Do you have any interest in helping implement the feature?

Yes.

blocked by catalystneuro/roiextractors#274

[CodyCBakerPhD]

You mean blocked by inscopix/pyisx#45?

[CodyCBakerPhD]

Oh I see, catalystneuro/roiextractors#274 blocked by inscopix/pyisx#45 as a chain

[bendichter]

I'm thinking about it as a chain of dependencies. This is blocked by catalystneuro/roiextractors#274 and catalystneuro/roiextractors#274 is blocked by inscopix/pyisx#45, so effectively this is blocked by inscopix/pyisx#45. I wish GitHub offered a better way to express this formally.

[CodyCBakerPhD]

Do they not even have a static FPS attributed to the files? Exact timestamps technically aren't necessary for instantiating the SegmentationExtractor

[bendichter]

Yes but it looks like they have not exposed that attribute yet in a non-private method
