Greatest Hits Video Collection (1991–2000) released November 20, 2001! It contains almost all of The Smashing Pumpkins music videos released prior to the breakup. Also included was the short film, 'Try', a previously unreleased "I Am One" music video from 1992, behind the scenes outtakes and footage, two live videos, and commentary from the band and directors.
The DVD was released in conjunction with the Rotten Apples compilation. Both were certified Gold less than a month after their release. Both also omit "The End is the Beginning is the End" as Warner Bros. owned the rights for the Batman & Robin soundtrack.
The song which accompanies the Gish menu is a studio recording of "Pale Scales". All other menu songs are from either Rotten Apples or its bonus disc, Judas O.
The live video for "Geek U.S.A." was recorded at the sound level of the PA system used at the Seattle club they performed at. According to captions on the video, you can experience the club sound by putting the volume of your sound system at its maximum.
In the commentary for "Rhinoceros", it was revealed there are two versions of the video (the second being featured on the DVD). The first version could be considered an outtake of the final version which is filmed in the fashion as the final (using Super 8mm film) as a woman is followed as she walks around a town with footage of live video cut in. The first version was not featured due to being lost until early 2009 when it was discovered while compiling rare music and video which has been unreleased officially or on a bootleg.
The video for "Untitled" in an easter egg, found by highlighting the "extras" button on the main screen and hitting the "left" arrow button on the DVD remote/player.
Greatest Hits Video Collection was praised by critics for highlighting some of the most memorable music videos of the 90s. AllMusic rated it 4.5/5, adding "Few rock bands have had as grand a cinematic vision with their videos as the Pumpkins did, and unlike most groups … even the earliest Pumpkins videos were exceptional." It achieved Gold status in the US and the UK, and went Platinum in Canada.
