A method of preparing video images for storing including the steps of compressing (18) a digital video image to reduce the number of bytes of storage required to store the digital video image; combining or multiplexing (22) a plurality of the compressed digital video images into a data block or data stream in a manner which allows the individual digital video images to be extracted from the data block or stream, when stored; and optionally, storing (26) the data block or data stream onto a single medium. The method may include the prior step of digitizing (14) analogue video images from an analogue video source (12) in, for example, CCIR, PAL, NTSC, EIA, or the like, formats as well as the step of storing the digitized digital video images in a frame buffer or similar memory prior to compression thereof.
