I think, this is only the front half of the medaile(?). What about 
the cutmark at the end of a piece? Is there also the need to include 
the following GOP as broken? If I cut the commercials out of a movie 
there is sometimes the loss of the last sentence in a dialog and 
its very noisy at the cutmark.

I hope that these cutting improvement will find its way into the 
VDR code and not only into the outstanding tools from Wiljo because 
I like this integrated cutting mechanism in VDR.
