So my friend started taping in 24 Bit.
I've been doing the transfers-
I'm on Window XP Pro
I use Audacity, then spit out 2 whole wav files, one in the original 24 bit and then one dithered down to 16 Bit.
I then put each one in CD Wave Editor and split the tracks.
I use Traders Little Helper to convert to FLAC.
The 16 bit converts fine.
The 24 bit gives me an error message-
found non-standard 'fmt' sub-chunck which has length = 40

The files are 2 Channel Stereo 24 bit/48 kHz- the same format they were recorded in.

Is CD Wave doing something to them?
Does TLH not do 24 Bit?
Is the 48 khz the problem?
Should I use another FLAC program?

Thanks in advance!
