I've just checked the sox CVS (see http://sox.sourceforge.net) and 24-bit support is still on the TO-DO list. To quote that file: "* Support 24-bit formats... Difficult because sometimes that means 24-bits in a 32-bit integer and sometimes it means packed 24-bits (read 3-bytes at a time)." I've just started exploring 24-bit audio under Linux, and share your feeling that very few applications support it. I don't know about the closed-source world. However, I've already done the hard work in my DVD-Audio authoring application, so I will try and copy-and-paste together a "wav2lpcm" program that supports 16-bit and 24-bit samples. I'll add 20-bit when I've worked out how they are stored - I'm assuming there's even less demand for 20-bit than 24-bit. I'm sure lots of people would like to see WAV support in mplex, but I don't have the time to attempt that at the moment.
