Revolving Credit Facility [Abstract]
Revolving Credit Facility	Note 5. Revolving Credit Facility. On June 23, 2011, we entered into a three-year Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (or PNC Credit Facility) with PNC Bank, National Association (or PNC). Our previous credit facility with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as successor by merger to Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Western), (or Wells Fargo), which provided a revolving line of credit of up to $15 million and was set to expire on July 31, 2011, was repaid in full with proceeds from the PNC Credit Facility and terminated. The PNC Credit Facility provides for up to a $17.5 million revolving line of credit commitment, including a letter of credit subfacility with a $1.5 million sublimit. Advances under the PNC Credit Facility generally are limited to the total of: (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable; (ii) 60% of eligible inventory (with an inventory sublimit of 25% of the borrowing base); and (iii) the lesser of $3 million or the amount of certain letters of credit provided by one or more affiliates of JH Partners, LLC (or JH Parties). The reserve against the borrowing base, or availability block, may be reduced upon meeting certain terms and conditions at PNC's discretion. In addition, the amount of outstanding credit under the PNC Credit Facility is capped at $5 million during a 30-day clean-up period annually between January 1 and April 30, with such period to commence each year on a date we select. This clean-up period was waived by PNC for calendar year 2012. At our option, subject to certain limitations (including, most notably, on eurodollar rate advances), interest rates under the PNC Credit Facility are equal to either (a) the sum of the alternate base rate plus 1.75% or (b) the sum of the eurodollar rate plus 3.25%. For purposes of the PNC Credit Facility: the "alternate base rate" means a rate equal to the higher of (i) PNC's base commercial lending rate, (ii) the average rate on overnight federal funds plus 0.5% and (iii) the applicable daily LIBOR rate plus 1%; and the "eurodollar rate" means the interest rate determined by PNC by dividing (i) the rate which appears on the Bloomberg Page BBAM1 or another eligible source selected by PNC, by (ii) a number equal to 1.00 minus the applicable Federal Reserve percentage. The obligations under the PNC Credit Facility are secured by a lien on substantially all of our assets. Our obligations under the PNC Credit Facility, up to a maximum of $6.5 million, are guaranteed by JH Parties, with Messrs. Theodore S. Green (our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman), John W. Hyde (our Vice Chairman) and John P. Avagliano (our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer) providing any applicable contribution to such guaranty in the portion of their ownership of our Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock (or Series B Preferred). JH Parties also provides up to $5 million in additional credit support for our revolving line of credit, which is currently a $3.7 million irrevocable standby letter of credit, as amended through August 15, 2012. Effective July 13, 2011, the PNC Credit Facility was amended solely to allow for contemplated consideration to be paid to JH Parties, which consideration includes (i) $500,000 commitment fee and (ii) a 5% annual fee on the total credit support provided, half of which is payable monthly in cash and half of which is deferred for 12 months, convertible at JH Parties' option into Image common stock at the end of the 12 months. See "Note 14. Related Party Transactions" below. The PNC Credit Facility provides for certain loan covenants, including financial covenants providing for a minimum senior fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1.00 (i.e., consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as defined in the Loan Agreement (or EBITDA) (minus unfinanced capital expenditures and income taxes) to consolidated total debt (plus certain management fees, and, in the case of the fixed charge coverage ratio, certain dividend payments) over a rolling prior four fiscal quarter period), and limitations on our ability with regard to the incurrence of debt, the disposition and preservation of collateralized assets, transactions with affiliates (other than payment of certain management fees), the existence of liens, capital expenditures, stock repurchases and dividends, investments, amendments of certain business arrangements with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (or SPHE) and Sony DADC (collectively Sony parties) and of the IMHE management agreement and mergers, dispositions and acquisitions (with certain limited exceptions for the purchase of third-party equity interests in Image/Madacy Home Entertainment, LLC (or IMHE)). At March 31, 2012, our EBITDA resulted in a fixed-charge coverage ratio more than the required minimum senior fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1.00. At March 31, 2012, our borrowing availability was $2.7 million ($4.1 million based upon eligible accounts receivable and inventory less the $1.35 million availability block) and our borrowing rates were 5.00% (based on the alternative base rate, which is Prime Rate of 3.25% plus 1.75%) and 3.72% (based on the eurodollar rate, which is three-month LIBOR of 0.47% plus 3.25%). The PNC Credit Facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, cross defaults to certain other contracts (including, for example, business arrangements with Sony parties and other material contracts) and indebtedness and events constituting a change of control or a material adverse effect in any of our results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise). The occurrence of an event of default will increase the applicable rate of interest and could result in the acceleration of our obligations under the PNC Credit Facility and JH Parties being required to pay certain of our obligations under the PNC Credit Facility. The agreement imposes restrictions on such items as encumbrances and liens, payments of dividends, other indebtedness, stock repurchases and capital expenditures. Any outstanding borrowings are secured by our assets. The agreement also requires us to comply with minimum financial and operating covenants. We were in compliance with all financial and operating covenants under the Wells Credit Facility at March 31, 2011, and when terminated on June 23, 2011, and are in compliance with all financial operating covenants under our PNC Credit Facility at March 31, 2012. However, given our current liquidity constraints, it is not possible to determine whether we will be in compliance with all financial and operating covenants in the future although we expect to be in compliance with all covenants. On November 2, 2011 we entered into the Second Amendment to Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC. Among other non-substantive changes, the amendment revised a financial covenant definition. There was no change to the borrowing capacity. On February 29, 2012 we entered into the Third Amendment to Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC. The amendment lowered the availability block from $2.6 million to $1.35 million thereby improving liquidity. Among other non-substantive changes, the amendment revised definitions for a financial covenant and eligible receivables. There was no change to the borrowing capacity. At March 31, 2012, we had $12.9 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2011, we had $6.1 million outstanding under the previous revolving credit facility. Prior to June 23, 2011, our Loan and Security Agreement, as amended (or Loan Agreement), with Wells Fargo provided us with a revolving line of credit of up to $20 million (reduced to $15 million on February 1, 2011). Actual borrowing availability under the line was based upon our level of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory. Eligible accounts receivable primarily included receivables generated by domestic sales. The Loan Agreement would have expired on July 31, 2011. In connection with our January 2010 sale of preferred stock to affiliates of JH Partners, LLC (or JH Transaction), these investors provided to Wells Fargo a $5.0 million irrevocable standby letter of credit through August 6, 2011 as credit support for our revolving line of credit. Borrowings bore interest at either the Prime Rate (3.25% at June 23, 2011 and at March 31, 2011) plus up to 1.5% or, at our option, LIBOR (three month LIBOR - 0.25% at June 23, 2011 and 0.31% at March 31, 2011) plus up to 4.0%, subject to minimum borrowing levels. The level of interest rate margin to Prime Rate or LIBOR was dependent upon our future financial performance as measured by EBITDA. We were required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0 measured at the end of each month on a fiscal year-to-date basis. If we maintained minimum borrowing availability equal to, or greater than, $1.5 million, our fixed-charge coverage ratio was not tested. At March 31 2011, we were not tested for such covenant compliance because we had availability in excess of the required $1.5 million minimum. Had we been tested, our EBITDA would have resulted in a fixed-charge coverage ratio more than the required 1.1 to 1.0. At March 31, 2011, our borrowing availability was $7.1 million ($8.6 million based upon eligible accounts receivable less the $1.5 million minimum requirement).

Note 5. Revolving Credit Facility.

On June 23, 2011, we entered into a three-year Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (or PNC Credit Facility) with PNC Bank, National Association (or PNC).

Our previous credit facility with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as successor by merger to Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Western), (or Wells Fargo), which provided a revolving line of credit of up to $15 million and was set to expire on July 31, 2011, was repaid in full with proceeds from the PNC Credit Facility and terminated. The PNC Credit Facility provides for up to a $17.5 million revolving line of credit commitment, including a letter of credit subfacility with a $1.5 million sublimit. Advances under the PNC Credit Facility generally are limited to the total of: (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable; (ii) 60% of eligible inventory (with an inventory sublimit of 25% of the borrowing base); and (iii) the lesser of $3 million or the amount of certain letters of credit provided by one or more affiliates of JH Partners, LLC (or JH Parties). The reserve against the borrowing base, or availability block, may be reduced upon meeting certain terms and conditions at PNC's discretion. In addition, the amount of outstanding credit under the PNC Credit Facility is capped at $5 million during a 30-day clean-up period annually between January 1 and April 30, with such period to commence each year on a date we select. This clean-up period was waived by PNC for calendar year 2012.

At our option, subject to certain limitations (including, most notably, on eurodollar rate advances), interest rates under the PNC Credit Facility are equal to either (a) the sum of the alternate base rate plus 1.75% or (b) the sum of the eurodollar rate plus 3.25%. For purposes of the PNC Credit Facility: the "alternate base rate" means a rate equal to the higher of (i) PNC's base commercial lending rate, (ii) the average rate on overnight federal funds plus 0.5% and (iii) the applicable daily LIBOR rate plus 1%; and the "eurodollar rate" means the interest rate determined by PNC by dividing (i) the rate which appears on the Bloomberg Page BBAM1 or another eligible source selected by PNC, by (ii) a number equal to 1.00 minus the applicable Federal Reserve percentage.

The obligations under the PNC Credit Facility are secured by a lien on substantially all of our assets. Our obligations under the PNC Credit Facility, up to a maximum of $6.5 million, are guaranteed by JH Parties, with Messrs. Theodore S. Green (our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman), John W. Hyde (our Vice Chairman) and John P. Avagliano (our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer) providing any applicable contribution to such guaranty in the portion of their ownership of our Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock (or Series B Preferred). JH Parties also provides up to $5 million in additional credit support for our revolving line of credit, which is currently a $3.7 million irrevocable standby letter of credit, as amended through August 15, 2012. Effective July 13, 2011, the PNC Credit Facility was amended solely to allow for contemplated consideration to be paid to JH Parties, which consideration includes (i) $500,000 commitment fee and (ii) a 5% annual fee on the total credit support provided, half of which is payable monthly in cash and half of which is deferred for 12 months, convertible at JH Parties' option into Image common stock at the end of the 12 months. See "Note 14. Related Party Transactions" below.

The PNC Credit Facility provides for certain loan covenants, including financial covenants providing for a minimum senior fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1.00 (i.e., consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as defined in the Loan Agreement (or EBITDA) (minus unfinanced capital expenditures and income taxes) to consolidated total debt (plus certain management fees, and, in the case of the fixed charge coverage ratio, certain dividend payments) over a rolling prior four fiscal quarter period), and limitations on our ability with regard to the incurrence of debt, the disposition and preservation of collateralized assets, transactions with affiliates (other than payment of certain management fees), the existence of liens, capital expenditures, stock repurchases and dividends, investments, amendments of certain business arrangements with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (or SPHE) and Sony DADC (collectively Sony parties) and of the IMHE management agreement and mergers, dispositions and acquisitions (with certain limited exceptions for the purchase of third-party equity interests in Image/Madacy Home Entertainment, LLC (or IMHE)). At March 31, 2012, our EBITDA resulted in a fixed-charge coverage ratio more than the required minimum senior fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1.00. At March 31, 2012, our borrowing availability was $2.7 million ($4.1 million based upon eligible accounts receivable and inventory less the $1.35 million availability block) and our borrowing rates were 5.00% (based on the alternative base rate, which is Prime Rate of 3.25% plus 1.75%) and 3.72% (based on the eurodollar rate, which is three-month LIBOR of 0.47% plus 3.25%).

The PNC Credit Facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, cross defaults to certain other contracts (including, for example, business arrangements with Sony parties and other material contracts) and indebtedness and events constituting a change of control or a material adverse effect in any of our results of operations or condition (financial or otherwise). The occurrence of an event of default will increase the applicable rate of interest and could result in the acceleration of our obligations under the PNC Credit Facility and JH Parties being required to pay certain of our obligations under the PNC Credit Facility.

The agreement imposes restrictions on such items as encumbrances and liens, payments of dividends, other indebtedness, stock repurchases and capital expenditures. Any outstanding borrowings are secured by our assets. The agreement also requires us to comply with minimum financial and operating covenants.

We were in compliance with all financial and operating covenants under the Wells Credit Facility at March 31, 2011, and when terminated on June 23, 2011, and are in compliance with all financial operating covenants under our PNC Credit Facility at March 31, 2012. However, given our current liquidity constraints, it is not possible to determine whether we will be in compliance with all financial and operating covenants in the future although we expect to be in compliance with all covenants.

On November 2, 2011 we entered into the Second Amendment to Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC. Among other non-substantive changes, the amendment revised a financial covenant definition. There was no change to the borrowing capacity.

On February 29, 2012 we entered into the Third Amendment to Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC. The amendment lowered the availability block from $2.6 million to $1.35 million thereby improving liquidity. Among other non-substantive changes, the amendment revised definitions for a financial covenant and eligible receivables. There was no change to the borrowing capacity.

At March 31, 2012, we had $12.9 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility. At March 31, 2011, we had $6.1 million outstanding under the previous revolving credit facility.

Prior to June 23, 2011, our Loan and Security Agreement, as amended (or Loan Agreement), with Wells Fargo provided us with a revolving line of credit of up to $20 million (reduced to $15 million on February 1, 2011). Actual borrowing availability under the line was based upon our level of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory. Eligible accounts receivable primarily included receivables generated by domestic sales. The Loan Agreement would have expired on July 31, 2011. In connection with our January 2010 sale of preferred stock to affiliates of JH Partners, LLC (or JH Transaction), these investors provided to Wells Fargo a $5.0 million irrevocable standby letter of credit through August 6, 2011 as credit support for our revolving line of credit. Borrowings bore interest at either the Prime Rate (3.25% at June 23, 2011 and at March 31, 2011) plus up to 1.5% or, at our option, LIBOR (three month LIBOR - 0.25% at June 23, 2011 and 0.31% at March 31, 2011) plus up to 4.0%, subject to minimum borrowing levels. The level of interest rate margin to Prime Rate or LIBOR was dependent upon our future financial performance as measured by EBITDA.

We were required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0 measured at the end of each month on a fiscal year-to-date basis. If we maintained minimum borrowing availability equal to, or greater than, $1.5 million, our fixed-charge coverage ratio was not tested. At March 31 2011, we were not tested for such covenant compliance because we had availability in excess of the required $1.5 million minimum. Had we been tested, our EBITDA would have resulted in a fixed-charge coverage ratio more than the required 1.1 to 1.0. At March 31, 2011, our borrowing availability was $7.1 million ($8.6 million based upon eligible accounts receivable less the $1.5 million minimum requirement).
