libSndFile preset "FLAC lossless from 16 bit audio" creates 8bit flac-s by default. #5
causes WinLAME to create 8bit flac-s with the default libSndFile preset (preset: "FLAC lossless from 16 bit audio")
Either the preset name is misleading / should be clarified, or the sub-type setting should be changed to "2".
workaround for anyone interested:
Changing the sub-type setting to "2", ie:
<value name="sndFileSubType">2</value>
after installation (in my case, the presets.xml was located in "C:\ProgramData\WinLAME\presets.xml") makes winlame create 16-bit FLAC files using this preset.
