I'm converting 6-channel 48kHz/24bit WAVs to FLAC using the default convertor settings for FLAC, level 5. The convertor should not change the bit depth or dither since it's a lossless source, but it always produces 16-bit-depth FLACs. When I feed the WAVs to the FLAC command line without parameters, it automatically converts them at level 8 and preserves the 24-bits. This seems buggy compared the the 0.9.0 convertor.

I can reproduce this as well, with the FLAC preset, set to -8.
To bypass this bug, you can use a "Custom" preset. I used:
- flac.exe
- flac
- -8 - -o %d
- lossless
- 24
You can edit -8 to -5.
