Deleting/trimming silence problem

[arthurputy]

Hi

 

I believe(!) I'm reasonably IT literate and usually manage to work out any issues encountered without any problem. However, this one has me stumped.

 

I am simply trying to trim silences from the beginning and end of some MP3 files. I have used delete and trim and saved them as MP3s and WAVs, without any success. I have even tried the auto-trim feature which appears to work, then I save the file and re-open it and - voila- the silences are back.

 

I'm running Win7(64) on a fairly new PC.

 

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

P.S. Noticed an old thred from 2006 relating to similar issues but this didn't appear to give any answers and seemed a bit old to resurrect. Thanks

 

P.P.S. Not getting any error messages - looks as though it has worked but.......
