<u>Logo:</u> On a black background, we see a box, with the CBS Eye inside the box, outlined with white, and a white rectangle with "CBS VIDEO" in the Compacta font, at the bottom of the box, flipping diagonally. Then a "shine" reflects on the sides of the box as it stops flipping, as is becoming straight. | <u>Logo:</u> On a black background, we see a box, with the CBS Eye inside the box, outlined with white, and a white rectangle with "<span style="font-family: 'Impact';">CBS VIDEO</span>" in the Compacta font, at the bottom of the box, flipping diagonally.

<u>Logo:</u> On a {{Font color|gray|gray}}/{{Font color|silver|silver}} wall background which waves, we see many colorful streaks (these are the same colors as the lights in CBS's 1992 ident). As the streaks fly by, the background fades into a watery blue globe with silver continents rotating around it. The streaks turn grey and morph into two copies of the CBS Eye, while the background rotates into a box with the now-completed eye in a black section and with a lower white section. The globe wipes into a completely silver color and "CBS VIDEO" (or "CBS DVD" on DVD releases), in the same font as the last logo, fades in underneath. As all that happens, the background turns cool gray/black gradient. The finished product resembles the last two logos. | <u>Logo:</u> On a {{Font color|gray|gray}}/{{Font color|silver|silver}} wall background which waves, we see many colorful streaks (these are the same colors as the lights in CBS's 1992 ident).

<u>Availability:</u> Common. Seen on all ''I Love Lucy'' DVD box sets, all three volumes of ''The Wild Wild West'' on VHS, the first six seasons of ''Hawaii Five-O'' (the original 1968-1980 series) on DVD, most DVDs of ''Survivor'', various other Paramount Television series and a good amount of CBS-produced TV movies. However, CBS DVD releases co-distributed by Paramount Home Media Distribution do not feature this logo. However, some releases feature both this logo and the Paramount DVD logo, such as a few Wings and NCIS DVDs. The UK DVD release of ''Snoopy, Come Home!'' and the French DVD release of ''One Kill'' (the latter in high pitch, surprisingly) features the "CBS VIDEO" variant of this logo. This was first seen on some Fox VHS releases until 1998, when distribution switched over to Paramount. This logo also appeared on the 2015 prints of the first two ''Peanuts'' films (''A Boy Named Charlie Brown'' and ''Snoopy, Come Home'') due to using the 2006 DVD master. | <u>Availability:</u> Common.
