'''Logo:''' On a black background, several {{color|green}} rings zoom in and move around, alongside a triangle and an oval. As the oval spins, numbers change on it, going from 5 to 1 like a film countdown. Once it reaches 1, the circle rotates one more time and reveals the pre-2010 MTV logo on it. The rings disappear as the triangle moves to its normal position near the circle, and the sans-serif words "{{color|green|'''''home video'''''}}" flip below the logo. The entire logo floats before a {{color|green}} flash occurs, causing the logo to sit still as lights move over it. The screen is then overtaken by {{color|green}} static before cutting to black.
'''Logo:''' On a black background, several rings zoom in and move around, alongside a triangle and an oval. As the oval and rings spin (changing colors from ({{color|purple}} to {{color|blue}} and then {{color|yellow}}), the numbers on it change from 5 to 1 like a film countdown. Then the circle rotates one more time and reveals the pre-2010 MTV logo on it. The rings disappear as the triangle moves to its normal position near the circle, and the sans-serif words "'''''home video'''''" flip below the logo. A flickering shadow with a bar scrolling through it appears behind both the circle and the text. The entire logo floats, then it blurs and turns black with rainbow edges as a white flash occurs. Finally, the logo stops changing colors and sits still before being overtaken by static.


'''Trivia:''' Despite the name change to "MTV Home Entertainment" in 2004, newer releases continued using the "{{color|green|'''''home video'''''}}" banner for this logo on-screen.

'''Variant:''' On VHS releases, the logo changes colors throughout, appearing in {{color|purple}}, {{color|blue}} and {{color|yellow}} before ending in its normal {{color|green}} color. The ending static animation also differs from the standard DVD version, which features a solid {{color|green}} color throughout. In 2003, VHS releases began using the standard DVD version.
'''Variant:''' In the early 2000s, a variant used for DVD and post-2002 VHS releases was used. The logo is green throughout; the circle and "{{color|green|'''''home video'''''}}" text also don't blur when the flash appears, instead glitching briefly after the flash. The ending animation also differs from the VHS variant.


'''FX/SFX:''' The movement of the objects, and the static.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A heavy drum-and-bass theme is heard throughout, alongside a computerized female voiceover (supplied by the "Kathy" voice in the text-to-speech program on Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X) counting down from 5 to 1, a robotic voice (supplied by the "Trinoids" novelty voice in the same text-to-speech program, albeit transposed 3 semitones higher) quickly saying "MTV HOME VIDEO!", and a robotic male voiceover (supplied by the "Fred" voice in the same text-to-speech program) saying "Stick it in. Press play.", and finally a loud bit of static.

'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' Sometimes, a 80's synth hip hop-esque theme is heard instead. The voices remain the same.

'''Availability:''' Seen on VHS releases and DVDs of MTV shows such as ''Beavis and Butt-head: The Mike Judge Collection'', ''Daria: Best Friends'', ''Jackass'', ''MTV Yoga'', and ''Æon Flux: The Complete Animated Collection''. Some DVDs, like ''Daria: The Complete Animated Series'', and some MOD DVD-R releases from the company, skip this logo altogether. This first appeared on some Sony-distributed releases in 1998 including ''Beavis and Butt-head: Hard Cash''.

'''Editor's Note:''' The text-to-speech voices and the static may unnerve some viewers. Nevertheless, it's a really cool logo.
