Most casino's CCTV systems still use analog video tape recording but Surveillance Managers within these facilities have to consider the move to digital. The reasons for using digital technology are now quite well understood; better image quality, system flexibility, instant access to images and improved management with no tapes to change and store.

This paper looks at the methods used by Treasure Island and the results and lessons learned during the process.
