1st ID (November 4, 1985-1986)

Visuals: On a black background, there is a blue sphere. Two separated segmented letters "Tv" slide between it and stand in place. The words "tivuitalia" and "Le Televisioni Indipendenti" in a stacked format diagonally crossfade underneath it, and "tivuitalia" shines.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: A short synth theme.

2nd ID (1986-1992)

Visuals: Against a navy-cyan gradient background is a grid-textured navy sphere within the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa colored in gray, in which the camera pans through Europe. The camera pans in front of the Italy map, as it colors within a red-white-green gradient and black streaks that makes the regions visible. Seventeen white radio towers within a satellite attached to the tip begin to rise in the regions of the country respectively as the camera begins to slightly get closer, then backs out. The radio towers fade, and the map flashes, turning into a silver outline of said map. The sphere and it's continents rise downwards, with the silver outline rotating into view and stand in the middle, with the words "TIVU ITALIA" arranged from the left and stacked respectively slide from the right-most of the screen and stand next to it. A silver rounded square outline draws in within a glowing white ball of light.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: An orchestral-sounding three-note synth chime within an echoed cymbal, followed by multiple whooshes from the radio towers. A light, dreamy synth theme within a whoosh as the said shape draws in, ending with a four-note synth chime and with woman choruses saying "Tivù Italia".

3rd ID (1992-unknown retirement year)

Visuals: On a raspy tan background, six shapes fade/wipe in order - a black circle, blue and magenta rings, green, cyan and yellow arcs. - all with a marble texture. Then, "Tivuitalia" fades underneath, with a drop shadow.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: A synth whoosh, with a somber 5-note piano chime.
