What is dovi_convert?

Convert Dolby Vision Profile 7 MKV files to Profile 8.1 for universal playback compatibility.

Why?

Most streaming devices (Apple TV, Shield, Amazon Fire*, etc.) don't support Profile 7's Enhancement Layer. They either fall back to HDR10 or blindly strip the layer, potentially ruining the picture.

dovi_convert analyzes files first, converts only what's safe, and preserves dynamic metadata for correct Dolby Vision playback.
