So it's Calibre not being able to do a simple cover (image) conversion (as I did in 2 seconds with Win 10 Photo Viewer)... that's a bit embarrassing!!
If your output profile is set to Tablet, then the problem is the cover graphic or the Kindle because when set to Tablet, none of the graphics are changed.

When the cover doesn't display correctly, how does it display?
