Paramount would form their own home video distribution arm in late 1979 and its first titles appeared on the Winter 1980 CES. Paramount would later secure deals with third-party distributors, most notably Atlantic Releasing Corporation and Skouras Pictures, throughout the 1980s and 1990s.
 
Paramount would later launch sublabels, such as '''Paramount Gateway Video''', formed in 1982 to release mid-price titles, and '''Bel Canto/Paramount Home Video''', formed in 1985 to release music-related titles. In 1984, Paramount Home Video began distributing titles from Simon & Schuster Video, and four years later, began distributing titles by Madison Square Garden Home Video. At the time, Simon & Schuster Video's corporate parent, Simon & Schuster, was owned by Gulf and Western Industries, which also owned Paramount Pictures, which made the former a sister company to the latter.
 
Throughout the early 1990s, it was the distributor for [[Full Moon Features|Full Moon Entertainment]], Miramax Home Video, and Skouras Home Video. In 1994, it picked upbecame the homedistributor video distribution rights tofor Capital Cities/ABC Video Publishing's; titlesthe distribution pact later expired in 1997, untila ityear after Capital Cities/ABC was sold to The Walt Disney inCompany 1996.and Inrenamed 1996to ABC, theInc., companywith pickedCapital upCities/ABC Video Publishing merged into [[Buena Vista Home Entertainment|Buena Vista Home Video]] as a result. The company brought the rights[[Nickelodeon Home Video|Nickelodeon Video]] label to North America in June 1996 as a result of Nickelodeon's titles,home video and fivemusic pact with [[Sony Music Entertainment]] being terminated at the time. Five years later, in September 2001, the company picked up the rights[[MTV toHome Entertainment|MTV's titlesHome Video]] label. In 2004, the company picked up home video rights to Hasbro's titles, until itHasbro would later leave for [[Shout! Factory]] by the end of the decade.
 
In 1998, it entered the DVD market, after trying on DIVX, then entered high definition in 2006. Paramount briefly withdrew from Blu-ray in 2007, except titles directed by Steven Spielberg, only to reenter Blu-ray in 2008 after HD-DVD failed.
