    Expert Answer
    You can take a screenshot by pressing and releasing both the home button and the trigger at the same time. If you want to record a video, you can do so by pressing and holding both the home button and the trigger at the same time. For newer Oculus models, open the universal menu by pressing the right touch controller, select Sharing, then select "Record Video".
