Errors reported incorrectly when handling too many files

I'm executing BIDS Validator v1.14.8 on a large dataset (~800GB, ~4500 files). The validator reports incorrectly the following errors:

  • [ERR] You have to define 'RepetitionTime' for this file. (code: 10 - REPETITION_TIME_MUST_DEFINE)
  • [ERR] You have to define 'EchoTime1' and 'EchoTime2' for this file. (code: 15 - ECHO_TIME1-2_NOT_DEFINED)
  • [ERR] You have to define 'TaskName' for this file. (code: 50 - TASK_NAME_MUST_DEFINE)

These values are present in the JSON files.

It seems that the validator doesn't consider the JSON files. Is it possible that I reach some limit. It's not memory because the validator executes and finishes.

When I bidsignore half of the subjects, the validation passes.

I'm happy to do more investigation but I'd need to know what.
