  * @title: removesilence
  *
  * Removes all silence periods from an audio stream, dropping silence buffers.
- *
+ * If the "silent" property is disabled, removesilence will generate
+ * bus messages named "removesilence". 
+ * The message's structure contains one of these fields:
+ * 
+ * - #guint64 "silence_detected": the PTS for the first silent buffer after a non silence period.
+ *    
+ * - #guint64 "silence_finished": the PTS for the first non silent buffer after a silence period.
+ *   
  * ## Example launch line
  * |[
  * gst-launch-1.0 -v -m filesrc location="audiofile" ! decodebin ! removesilence remove=true ! wavenc ! filesink location=without_audio.wav
