Hello,
I am seeking to utilize MNE to analyze data that has no .vmrk file as the data has no markers.
Read_raw_brainvision is not working as it says there is no .vmrk file. Is there any way to read in data for .eeg and .vhdr file directly?

Hello @Dtdt and welcome to the forum!
Are you sure the file didn’t just get lost? Usually, BV Recorder (and PyCorder too, I believe) add at least a New Segment
marker at the beginning of a recording. Hence, there should always be a .vmrk
file

You could manually edit the .vhdr
file and remove the link to the marker file if you really don’t have it.
or if that doesn’t work, download this file: https://github.com/mne-tools/mne-python/blob/main/mne/io/brainvision/tests/data/test.vmrk
then delete the lines starting with Mk
and edit the line that reads DataFile=test.eeg
to point to your real eeg file (just the filename, not the path → all 3 files vhdr, vmrk, eeg should stay in the same directory)
then proceed as @cbrnr mentioned above with the .vhdr
file.
… I also think so. So please double check!
