Dear AFNI experts,
I ran align_epi_anat.py below which generated align_tlrc.jpg attached. For this, both anat (T1) and epi files were generated as tlrc format.
align_epi_anat.py \
-epi2anat \
-anat T1w_acpc_dc_restore.nii.gz \
-epi ${subj}_REST1_LR+orig\
-epi_base 0 \
-volreg off \
-cost lpa+ZZ \
-big_move \
-overwrite
Therefore, when running run the proc.py , it showed the error below, which is the same as here (https://afni.nimh.nih.gov/afni/community/board/read.php?1,160486)
3dbucket -prefix subj_T1.nii.gz
++ 3dbucket: AFNI version=AFNI_19.0.06 (Feb 4 2019) [64-bit]
** ERROR: output dataset name 'subj_T1.nii.gz' conflicts with existing file

Here is the proc py script I used.

According to the suggestion from RIck in this thread (https://afni.nimh.nih.gov/afni/community/board/read.php?1,160486), I changed the view to orig using this command line: setenv AFNI_NIFTI_VIEW orig
After that when running align_epi_anat.py using the same script, the alignment of the anat (T1) and epi files in orig are not as good as tlrc. (attached files including align orig_1). Could you please advise how to resolve this issue?
Best,
JW
