Logo: On a dark blue-blackgradient background, a spotlight shines down. After a while, some ripple-like circles appear as a floor-like surface appears, followed by a flash as a light draws a star. When it's done, some gold streaks appear, connecting with the star, which is now half-formed. The letters of the word "ODEON" flash in and flash lightblue, as the URL "www.odeon.gr" appears below.

Variants:

In some DVDs, the star is 2D and doesn't rotate.
There exists a 20th Anniversary variant where "20" appears in the star with "th" to its upright, and "anniversary" in spaced-out letters appears below "ODEON".

FX/SFX: Eveything, in CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: An echoing sleigh bell-like sound, with a whoosh as the ripples appear, a whoosh along the flash, some humming and banging noises as the star is being drawn, a five-note orchestral theme as the letters appear, an orchestral hit, and a humming sound.

Availability: Common. Found on DVDs released at the time, such as DVDs for SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer.

Editor's Note: This logo has good animation.
