tmpgenc cutting makes weird audio pip

Archived from groups: rec.video.desktop (More info?)

Hi all,

Fifty percent of the time, when I cut mpg files with tmpgenc 12a the
end file has an audio pip at the end, which it didn't before. Does
anybody know why this happens and how I can get rid of it or stop it
from happening?

I could cut the pip out and re encode the audio file, but this is going
to degrade the sound again.

Thanks for any help,
lab.

Cutting at an amplitude spike results in the pop. This is not a fault of
the program. Any vertical drop in amplitude will result in this. Martin's
solution is quite correct.
