In 1984, to coincide with NTA's own rebranding as '''Republic Pictures Corporation''', the home video division was renamed itself to '''Republic Pictures Home Video'''. In addition to its existing public domain line, [[Spotlite Video]], the division also launched '''Inspiration Video''' to release religious material. Both labels were eventually dissolved in 1986, with Republic being the only surviving company.
