Now I'm confused...

Where did you find a non-zero least significant byte?
you are right, i've done so many tests and now, after i've double checked the files, i'm also confused where, when and if i really saw that or made a mistake in the hurry. that is why i made the archive, so someone else to verify my tests and conclusions, because maybe i've made mistakes, for the moment seems that the correct conclusion is that Nero always uses 24bit output and always correctly decodes MLP, so we are almost back to the very beginning with the TrueHD tracks ...
