WTV (Windows TV) is the Windows Media Center DVR recording format, storing broadcast television in an NTFS-like container with MPEG-2 or H.264 video, AC3 or AAC audio, and EPG metadata. The Kindle Video device preset is a pre-configured FFmpeg profile targeting Amazon's Kindle Fire tablet line, producing H.264 Baseline Profile video with AAC-LC audio at resolutions optimized for the Kindle Fire's 7-10 inch screen and MediaTek or Qualcomm processing hardware.
Kindle Fire tablets are among the most affordable tablets available, making them a common secondary screen for entertainment. Converting WTV recordings to the Kindle preset ensures compatibility with Fire OS's somewhat limited codec support while optimizing for the device's lower processing power compared to flagship tablets.
Kindle Fire tablets run Fire OS (a fork of Android) with a more restricted media stack than stock Android. While basic H.264/AAC playback works, the Kindle preset ensures the encoding profile and resolution match what Fire OS and its built-in video player handle smoothly. WTV files are completely unplayable on Kindle — the format is foreign to Fire OS entirely.
The Kindle preset uses conservative encoding parameters (Baseline Profile, moderate bitrate) that prevent stuttering and excessive battery drain on the Kindle Fire's lower-end processors. This is particularly important for the base Kindle Fire 7, which has limited CPU and GPU compared to iPad or Samsung Galaxy Tab.
FFmpeg demuxes the WTV container and applies the Kindle Fire encoding profile. The preset uses H.264 Baseline Profile at up to 720p (1280x720) with AAC-LC stereo at 128 kbps. Video bitrate targets 1.5-3 Mbps to ensure smooth playback on Kindle Fire's MediaTek processors. Interlaced WTV sources are deinterlaced with yadif. AC3 surround audio is downmixed to stereo. The MP4 container uses faststart for progressive playback from Kindle's internal storage or microSD card.
The Kindle preset at 720p with 1.5-3 Mbps produces clean video that looks sharp on the Kindle Fire's 7-10 inch 1024x600 to 1920x1200 screen. Broadcast SD content is presented cleanly at native resolution. HD recordings look crisp at 720p. Audio at 128 kbps AAC is transparent through the Kindle's speakers or connected headphones. File sizes average 0.7-1.5 GB per hour.
