Feature Request: STARSolo, Make Velocity available for SmartSeq #1690

Dear STAR-Team,

I was trying to use STARSolo to generate spliced/unspliced matrices from SmartSeq data. However, I receive the error, that this is not possible yet. Could you include support for this feature in the next release?

Thank you!

Hi @alefrol638

This feature is on my TODO list, but cannot promise any ETA, unfortunately.

Hi Alex,

Thank you for the fast response! I am struggling at the moment with the workaround. So in principle I have to create single BAM files for each cell, run velocyto over them and then merge the matrices, right? Or is there an easier way for that?

Thank you for your time!

Best, Aleksej

Hey, just wanted to follow up on this feature. Would be very helpful to be able to RNA velocity for SmartSeq samples. Thanks!
