# Recording videos from your headset

## post by david on Aug 30, 2024

Friday is here, which means another [pro-tip](https://community.arkio.is/tag/pro-tip)! We’ve had a few users ask how we record our mixed reality content and the settings we use—so here it is!

The process is very simple:

1. Hit the meta quest button on your controller
2. Click record
3. Capture the crisp

For getting those files off your headset is also pretty straightforward which Meta has [documented here](https://www.meta.com/help/quest/articles/headsets-and-accessories/using-your-headset/transfer-files-from-computer-to-headset/), but here is the gist:

1. Connect your headset to your computer (for mac you’ll need to install a file transfer app which is in the link above)
2. Allow your headset to connect to the computer by clicking on the notification
3. Navigate to `This PC/[Your Quest Device]/Internal shared storage/Oculus/VideoShots` to get your videos

have a good weekend
