HD content conversion updates

I didn't realize it's something K could do on request! I'd love it if they separated the Color and Chrome versions of the new Mad Max movies. (Fury Road and Furiosa.) @MikeKobb ?
The Chrome editions are already both discrete downloads (and discrete listings). Right?

The issue with Das Boot was when you triggered an HD download a single file downloaded including both the Theatrical and Director's Cuts, preventing a user from downloading only one. (This was new as a result of the Strato HD upgrade effort. They were previously discrete and have since been updated to be discrete.)
 
Checked The Full Monty again and it’s definitely showing as compatible in my downloads but I haven’t tried watching it. Bought Ip Man 3 today which isn’t compatible and it doesn’t even give me the ability to download. Either it hasn’t been updated in the list to show as being compatible now or it’s an error letting it be downloaded but don’t have the time to try it at the moment.
 
It looks like K is on the final (initial) march. I've been seeing daily updates knocking remaining titles off my short list. Of course, these include updates that strip Extras so for me they just move over to the "Do Not Update" list. Unfortunately that list is now at 163, or 42% of the "updates" now representing a "lesser" offering.
 
yeah, I was stuck at 5 movies left unsupported for months on end, but over the past two weeks or so, I’m down to 1 left.
 
Previously removed HD Extras have been restored to The Pacific:
 
Previously removed HD Extras have been restored to Prometheus:
Further, Extras have been added as a separate download allowing 4K viewers access without requiring a full HD download.
