Convert MTV to DIB

The MTV Raytracing Image Format, named after its creator Mark T. VandeWettering, is a simple, uncompressed true-color raster image format used primarily by the MTV Ray Tracer program. It employs the MTV or PIC file extension and is similar to the binary PPM format. Developed in the early days of ray tracing, the MTV format gained popularity due to its straightforward design and ease of use. It supports true-color images and is often utilized in conjunction with other ray-tracing utilities for rendering high-quality graphics.

A Device Independent Bitmap (DIB) is a format for storing bitmap graphics, ensuring compatibility across different devices and platforms. Its primary use is to enable consistent image representation, regardless of the display hardware or software. Originating from early Windows operating systems, DIBs allowed developers to create graphics that would render accurately on various hardware. Today, DIBs are integral in applications needing uniform image display and manipulation, maintaining their relevance in diverse technological contexts.
