I might be wrong. I remember seeing early reports that said 10 days. Even then three days worth of footage from hundreds of cameras is going to take a while to sift through.
Not for the LARGE team they have working through it.

4chan. Internet sleuths and anons seem to be the only ones putting out information about the shooter at this point.
The shooter must have been smart enough to bypass any sensors on the windows (if they have them for safety) but so crude as to use a hammer to break the window?

How many cameras are there between the front entrance and the elevators? How many people are in frame of even one of those cameras at any given time? Multiply that over 72 hours. Just finding him in all of that footage is going to be like finding a needle in a haystack.

Why would he have to bypass the sensor? Odds are he began firing immediately after breaking the window. At which point casino security has bigger problems than investigating a broken window. For all we know him tripping the sensor may have been the reason SWAT knew exactly where to go.

How long before the shooting started and the police arriving at the room?

So they can follow him from the moment he checks in to the moment he hits the elevators. At which point there's no way to know when he's leaving his room and heading back down to his car or anything. As was posted a long time back in this thread most casinos don't have cameras outside of the lobby and the casino floor.

CNN just did a good timeline on this..
The whole event played out over 1 hour and 12 minutes.
It was basically an hour from the time the security guard got shot through the door to the time SWAT was on site to breach the room.
