*** In addition to the above mentioned printings, SP mode tapes would have a code on the left (prior to 1986) or the right (after 1986) of the vertical-blanking interval that begins with "MV-GARD" (pre-1978), "MAG" (1978-1980), "MAGVID" (1980-1982), "FOXVID" (1982-1984), "CBSFOX" (1984-1986) or "CFV" (1986-1987). VCA/Technicolor continued this code method, rather beginning with "TVC," for the next one decade, following its acquisition of CBS/Fox's duplication facility and name change to Technicolor Videocassette in 1987 and Technicolor Video Services in 1993.
* Most tapes printed after January 30, 1990, more than two years after Technicolor's acquisition of CBS/Fox's duplication facility, would have an engraving on the left or right side that indicates the company that distributed it, identical to the engraving on either side of tapes duplicated at Technicolor in Newbury Park and New York City. This never applied to tapes released by CBS/Fox.
