How to Tell
- Beginning around 1990, one or two rows of letters and numbers were engraved above the recording tab, like this for example:
T70PX2
LY7102
Starting around 1998, tapes from this duplicator only had one row of letters and numbers engraved. In addition, the font was changed (e.g. T82PX1). While this happened a few times before 1998, this is when it became permanent.
- Tapes by this duplicator have printings on the tape guard, or sometimes the bottom middle side. It would appear like this for example:
W.O.8504
SILLYVILLE
PASS 3 SLAVE 976
- A few earlier tapes instead had a sticker with similar information on it on the bottom middle side, like this for example:
W.O.#18441W
HOLIDAY
Slave #V SP Pass 3
- Some RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video tapes duplicated by this company had a black screen test pattern with a 1133hz tone at the end.

Trivia
- When Rick Hively left in 1999 to form Media Management Services, he took Trinity Broadcasting's duplication contract with him.
- Feature Films for Families also duplicated On Our Own at another duplicator with the CDI initialism, CDI Media. Tapes from both duplicators simply identified the duplicator as CDI.
