I usually do this in Audacity (graphical app) and the feature is called
"Truncate Silence".  I'm not sure if you need to do this in a console app.

Also,  Audacity will uncompress your mp3 file to perform the edit which then
you can export back to mp3 (transcode).

I don't know of any app that will trim silence on MP3s in a lossless way.

Hi Jorge. Thanks for the reply.

I know about audacity, but I want a command line tool that will work overnight, on a batch of mp3 files, each about 15MB per hour.

It would be handy if audacity could do this from the command-line as a batch job.

I just want to set the job up to run, and come back to it when it's done.

Kind Regards,

Keith

PS The list is quiet today. Hope I'm not loosing anything from it :)
