Since VDR itself (i.e. the DVB-card) is apparently able to replay the
edited files, the problem must be with the PVAStrumento or mplex software.
My guess would be that they get irritated by the discontinuity in the
Presentation Time Stamps, which occurs at the editing point. These
programs should be able to handle such discontinuities gracefully, instead
of simply throwing away the entire rest of the audio track.
