Subject:SF 5.0 Auto Trim/Crop bug!!!

Don´t know if anybody else have experienced this, but among
all the other bugs, the Auto trim/crop-function is
completely unusable in SF5.

I use the AT/C to cut out speak for multimedia-productions,
using the "remove silence, creates regions"-function. I
normally make a bounce-file with min. 2,5 sec silence
between the phrases, and set the AT/C´s min. interphrase
accordingly.

When I run it, the AT/C crops out the 2,5 sec silence
between the phrases and makes regions, as it is supposed
to. But it also trims the spaces between the words in each
phrase (not creating regions), no matter how I set
Threshold or Interphrase Silence-parameters. Even worse, it
sometimes takes the beginning of a word, and repeat it
right after, like "S-Stupid".

I´ve been using the AT/C-function in the earlier versions
for 4 years or so, and I have never encountered this
problem before I switched to SF5.0.

This problem has caused me to stop using the SF5.0, as I
can´t deliver corrupted files to my paying clients. In a
busy month we deliver something like 20000+ files for CD-
ROM games, and it is NOT an option to listen thru, and
correct, all of them.

I´ll be glad to mail examples of this bug to you at SF, if
you care to look at the problem.
