It was released by Albert Productions and Epic Music Video on 28 March 2005. The first disc contains videos from the Bon Scott era (1975–1980), such as the band's first TV appearance and a performance on television ten days before Scott died.[1] The second disc contains material from the Brian Johnson era up to 1991.

The third disc was released on 10 November 2009 as part of the Backtracks box set. It is included in both the Deluxe and Standard Edition. This DVD picks up from where the original 2DVD Family Jewels set leaves off (1991), Family Jewels Disc Three begins with "Big Gun" the theme song to the motion picture Last Action Hero. Also on this disc are three music videos from the Ballbreaker album, three from Stiff Upper Lip and two from Black Ice. There are also several songs from the original Family Jewels set that actually had more than one promotional clip. The third disc also contains these videos, which appear on DVD for the first time.[2]

The compilation is certified 10× Platinum by the RIAA for sales in excess of 1,000,000 (RIAA Video Longform Platinum = 100,000). The UK magazine Classic Rock awarded Family Jewels the title of 'DVD of the year' in 2005.
