have you tried the Commflag Silence detection?

usually I'm getting 95-99% on most Australian channels, Channel 7 results
lately have been alittle off for atleast one kids show I record but all the
others are usually pretty accurate.

There were rummors of this being pulled into the standard commflagging in
master but I dont think thats been done as of yet????

Cheers,

Anthony
