AMENDMENT NO. 2
TO
SCHEDULE 13D
This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements the statements on Schedule
13D and Schedule 13D/A filed with respect to the events occurring March 28,
1997 (the "Initial Filing") and June 10, 1997 (the "First Amended Filing")
filed by Michael Viner ("Mr. Viner") and Deborah Raffin Viner ("Ms. Raffin") on
August 15, 1997 relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), of Dove Entertainment, Inc., a California corporation ("Dove"
or the "Issuer"). Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the
same meanings attributed to them in the Initial Filing.
Item 5. Interests in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) The following list sets forth the corrected aggregate number and
percentage (based on 5,557,099 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which
includes 33,333 shares of Common Stock currently issuable upon exercise of
options issued on September 4, 1996, as well as 5,523,766 shares of Common
Stock outstanding as set forth in Dove's Form 10-QSB for the fiscal quarter
ended March 31, 1997) of outstanding shares of Common Stock owned beneficially
by each reporting person named in Item 2 of the First Amended Filing, as of
June 10, 1997:
<TABLE>

Mr. Viner 1,145,844(1) 20.6%(1)
Ms. Raffin 1,145,844(1) 20.6%(1)
</TABLE>
- ---------------------
(1) All of such shares are held jointly by Mr. Viner and Ms. Raffin as
community property. In addition to 1,112,511 shares of Common Stock,
includes 33,333 shares of Common Stock currently issuable upon
exercise of options issued on September 4, 1996 with an exercise price
of $3.50 per share. The 80,000 shares of Common Stock or 22,079 shares
of Preferred Stock (referenced in the Initial Filing) that may have
been authorized by the Issuer in lieu of accrued and unpaid dividends
on the Series A Preferred Stock are not included because Mr. Viner and
Ms. Raffin have been unable to confirm such authorization with either
the Issuer or the Issuer's counsel. The Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of an additional 66,667 options issued on September 4, 1996
with an exercise price of $3.50 per share is not considered
Page 3 of 4
<PAGE> 5
beneficially owned because 33,333 of such options are not vested until
September 4, 1997, and 33,334 of such options are not vested until
September 4, 1998. The Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Series E Shares is not considered beneficially owned because the
Series E Preferred Stock is not convertible into Common Stock until
six months following the issuance thereof, which is more than 60 days
after the date of the most recent event reported herein. Further, the
Series E Shares do not bear voting rights until converted into Common
Stock. The reported percentages may be greater than actual because
they are based on 5,557,099 shares, which includes 5,523,766 shares of
Common Stock outstanding as set forth in Dove's Form 10-QSB for the
fiscal quarter ended March 31, 1997, as well as the 33,333 shares of
Common Stock currently issuable upon exercise of options issued on
September 4, 1996, but which does not include any other outstanding
options, warrants, convertible preferred stock and other outstanding
securities convertible into Common Stock but not beneficially owned by
Mr. Viner or Ms. Raffin.
(b) Mr. Viner and Ms. Raffin have shared power to vote and
dispose of 1,145,844 shares of Common Stock, which includes all
shares described above in footnote (1) to the table in Item 5(a).

this Schedule is true, complete and correct.
