'''Audio:''' An dramatic brass fanfare, followed by an male announcer saying "ABC Video Enterprises presents!"

 

'''Availability:''' This logo is seen at the end of ''The Miracle of Lake Placid'' and at the start of ''The Greatest Fights of the '70s''.

'''Audio:''' A humming sound, followed by a loud synth trumpet crescendo, and closes with a single drumbeat.

 

'''Audio Variant:''' A silent version exists.

* At the time, ABC licensed its film and TV library to various companies for VHS/Laserdisc/Betamax release, such as [[Embassy Home Entertainment]], [[Golden Books Family Entertainment|Golden Book Video]], [[Magnetic Video Corporation]] (as well as successors [[20th Century-Fox Video]] and [[CBS/Fox Video]]), [[Warner Bros. Home Entertainment|Warner Home Video]], [[Vestron Video]], and [[Republic Pictures Home Video]].

* The best way to find this logo is to look for an ABC Video Enterprises print logo on the cover.

* Re-releases put out via Promotional Concept Group Inc. in the late 1980s-early 1990s will most likely use the 3rd logo instead.

* The silent version can be found at the end of the [[Playhouse Video]] release of ''Here Come the Littles!''.

* This logo is retained at the start of [[Echo Bridge Home Entertainment]] releases of ABC-owned titles, like ''Home for the Holidays'' and ''Huckleberry Finn''.

* The original VHS releases of ''Schoolhouse Rock'' released by Golden Book Video have this logo instead of the next one.

* Outside of VHS releases, this logo was seen on Carlton Select airings of ''Moonlighting'' (this despite the [[Buena Vista International Television]] logo's presence at the end), True Movies airings of ''No Place to Run'' and ''The Kansas City Massacre'', Talking Pictures TV airings of ''The Great Houdini'', a January 23, 1996 AMC airing of ''The Wild Heart'', and the last few frames of this logo were also accidentally kept intact on a [[DHX Media|DHX]] Junior print of ''The Littles'' episode ''The Spirits of the Night''.

* It may also appear on older prints of ABC made for TV movies.

* On VHS releases of children's programming, the ABC logo is replaced with a {{color|gold|yellow}} version wearing a hat with {{color|red}}, {{color|green}}, and {{color|blue}} stripes all over it. The stripes are also missing.

* A version where the logo stays on screen for eight seconds, doubled from the regular four seconds, exists.

* The normal version can be found on ABC Video distributed VHS releases at the time, such as ''New York Rangers: 1994 Stanley Cup Champions''.

* The kids' variant is seen on ''Schoolhouse Rock!'' VHS releases before [[Buena Vista Home Entertainment|Buena Vista Home Video]] took over, early ''Bump in the Night'' VHS releases, as well as the 1994 VHS release of ''The Secret Garden''.

* The longer eight second variant is only known to appear on the 1995 LaserDisc release of ''The Day After'' Director's Cut.

'''Availability:''' This logo is seen on ABC VHS releases distributed by Buena Vista Home Video, such as the VHS boxset series ''The Century: America's Time'' (w/ Peter Jennings).
