Recording gameplay footage - guide for Rift users

The info is already here and I wish to especially thank CATPAIN KIRK for his help getting me going. Rep to him. I now wish to share the methods in one succinct Completely Sober video guide.

All you need to know about capturing your gameplay footage in 2D while still playing with the Oculus Rift.

Another video in my highly popular (eventually...) Completely Sober Guides series.

I hope it helps you all, so we can see many more awesome videos of this game of endless possibilities:
