# Create mixed reality photos and videos
HoloLens gives users the experience of mixing the real world with the digital world. Mixed reality capture (MRC) lets you capture that experience as a photo or video, or share what you see with others in real-time.
Mixed reality capture uses a first-person point of view so other people can see holograms as you see them. For a third-person point of view, use [spectator view](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/spectator-view). Spectator view is especially useful for demos.
While it's fun to share videos amongst friends and colleagues, videos can also help teach other people to use an app or to communicate problems with apps and experiences.
> [!NOTE]
> If you can't launch mixed reality capture experiences and your HoloLens is a work device, check with your system administrator. Access to the camera can be restricted through company policy.
## Capture a mixed reality photo
There are several ways to take a photo of mixed reality on HoloLens; you can use hardware buttons, voice, or the Start menu.
### Hardware buttons to take photos
To take a quick photo of your current view, press the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time. This is a bit like the HoloLens version of a screenshot or print screen.
- [Button locations on HoloLens 2](hololens2-hardware.md)
- [Button locations on HoloLens (1st gen)](hololens1-hardware.md#hololens-components)
> [!NOTE]
> Holding the **volume up** and **volume down** buttons for three seconds will start recording a video rather than taking a photo. To stop recording, tap both **volume up** and **volume down** buttons simultaneously.
### Voice commands to take photos
Cortana can also take a picture. Say: "Hey Cortana, take a picture."
### Start menu to take photos
Use the Start gesture to go to **Start**, then select the **camera** icon.
Point your head in the direction of what you want to capture, then [air tap](hololens2-basic-usage.md#touch-holograms-near-you) to take a photo. You can continue to air tap and capture additional photos. Any photos you capture will be saved to your device.
Use the Start gesture again to end photo capture.
## Capture a mixed reality video
There are several ways to record a video of mixed reality on HoloLens; you can use hardware buttons, voice, or the Start menu.
### Hardware buttons to record videos
The quickest way to record a video is to press and hold the **volume up** and **volume down** buttons simultaneously until a three-second countdown begins. To stop recording, tap both buttons simultaneously.
> [!NOTE]
> Quickly pressing the **volume up** and **volume down** buttons at the same time will take a photo rather than recording a video.
### Voice to record videos
Cortana can also record a video. Say: "Hey Cortana, start recording." To stop a video, say "Hey Cortana, stop recording."
### Start menu to record videos
Use the Start gesture to go to **Start**, then select the **video** icon. Point your head in the direction of what you want to capture, then [air tap](hololens2-basic-usage.md#touch-holograms-near-you) to start recording. There will be a three second countdown and your recording will begin.
To stop recording, use the Start gesture and select the highlighted **video** icon. The video will be saved to your device.
> [!NOTE]
> **Applies to HoloLens (1st gen) only**
> The [Windows 10 October 2018 Update](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/release-notes-october-2018) changes how the Start gesture and Windows button behave on HoloLens (1st gen). Before the update, the Start gesture or Windows button would stop a video recording. After the update, however, the Start gesture or Windows button opens the **Start** menu (or the **quick actions menu** if you are in an immersive app), from which you can select the highlighted **video** icon to stop recording.
## Share what you see in real-time
You can share what you see in HoloLens with friends and colleagues in real-time. There are a few methods available:
1. Connecting to a Miracast-enabled device or adapter to watch on a TV.
1. Using [Windows Device Portal](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/using-the-windows-device-portal) to watch on a PC
1. Using the [Microsoft HoloLens companion app](https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9NBLGGH4QWNX) to watch on a PC.
1. Deploying the [Microsoft Dynamics 365 Remote Assist](https://dynamics.microsoft.com/en-us/mixed-reality/remote-assist) app, which enables front-line workers to stream what they see to a remote expert. The remote expert can then guide the front-line worker verbally or by annotating in their world.
> [!NOTE]
> Sharing what you see via Windows Device Portal or Microsoft HoloLens companion app requires your HoloLens to be in [Developer mode](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/using-the-windows-device-portal#setting-up-hololens-to-use-windows-device-portal).
### Stream video with Miracast
Use the Start gesture to go to **Start**, then select the **connect** icon. From the picker that appears, select the Miracast-enabled device or adapter to which you want to connect.
To stop sharing, use the Start gesture and select the highlighted **connect** icon. Because you were streaming, nothing will be saved to your device.
> [!NOTE]
> Miracast support was enabled on HoloLens (1st gen) beginning with the [Windows 10 October 2018 Update](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/release-notes-october-2018).
### Real time video with Windows Device Portal
Because sharing via Windows Device Portal requires Developer mode to be enabled on HoloLens, follow the instructions in our developer documentation to [set up Developer mode and navigate Windows Device Portal](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/using-the-windows-device-portal).
### Microsoft HoloLens companion app
Because sharing via the Microsoft HoloLens companion app requires Developer mode to be enabled on HoloLens, follow the instructions in our developer documentation to [set up Developer mode](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/using-the-windows-device-portal). Then, download the [Microsoft HoloLens companion app](https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9NBLGGH4QWNX) and follow the instructions within the app to connect to your HoloLens.
Once the app is set up with your HoloLens, select the **Live stream** option from the app's main menu.
## View your mixed reality photos and videos
Mixed reality photos and videos are saved to the device's "Camera Roll". You can browse the contents of this folder on your HoloLens with the File Explorer app (navigate to Pictures > Camera Roll).
You can also view your mixed reality photos and videos in the Photos app, which is pre-installed on HoloLens. To pin a photo in your world, select it in the Photos app and choose **Place in mixed world**. You can move the photo around your world after it's been placed.
To view and/or save your mixed reality photos and videos on a PC connected to HoloLens, you can use [Windows Device Portal](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/using-the-windows-device-portal#mixed-reality-capture) or your [PC's File Explorer via MTP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/mixed-reality/release-notes-april-2018#new-features-for-hololens).
## Share your mixed reality photos and videos
After capturing a mixed reality photo or video, a preview will appear. Select the **share** icon above the preview to bring up the share assistant. From there, you can select the end point to which you'd like to share that photo or video.
You can also share mixed reality photos and videos from OneDrive, by automatically uploading your mixed reality photos and videos. Open the OneDrive app on HoloLens and sign in with a personal [Microsoft account](https://account.microsoft.com) if you haven't already. Select the **settings** icon and choose **Camera upload**. Turn Camera upload on. Your mixed reality photos and videos will now be uploaded to OneDrive each time you launch the app on HoloLens.
> [!NOTE]
> You can only enable camera upload in OneDrive if youre signed into OneDrive with a personal Microsoft account. If you set up HoloLens with a work or school account, you can add a personal Microsoft account in the OneDrive app to enable this feature.
## Limitations of mixed reality capture
- While using mixed reality capture, the framerate of HoloLens will be halved to 30 Hz.
- Videos have a maximum length of five minutes.
- The resolution of photos and videos may be reduced if the photo/video camera is already in use by another application, while live streaming, or when system resources are low.
## Default file format and resolution

# Manage updates to HoloLens
# Managing HoloLens updates
HoloLens uses Windows Update, just like other Windows 10 devices. When an update is available, it will be automatically downloaded and installed the next time your device is plugged in and connected to the Internet.
This article will walk through all of the way to manage updates on HoloLens.
## Manually check for updates
While HoloLens periodically checks for system updates so you don't have to, there may be circumstances in which you want to manually check.
To manually check for updates, go to **Settings** > **Update & Security** > **Check for updates**. If the Settings app says your device is up to date, you have all the updates that are currently available.
## Go back to a previous version (HoloLens 2)
In some cases, you might want to go back to a previous version of the HoloLens software. You can do this by using the Advanced Recovery Companion to reset your HoloLens to the earlier version.
> [!NOTE]
> Going back to an earlier version deletes your personal files and settings.
To go back to a previous version of HoloLens 2, follow these steps:
1. Make sure that you don't have any phones or Windows devices plugged in to your PC.
1. On your PC, download the [Advanced Recovery Companion](https://www.microsoft.com/p/advanced-recovery-companion/9p74z35sfrs8?activetab=pivot:overviewtab) from the Microsoft Store.
1. Download the [most recent HoloLens 2 release](https://aka.ms/hololens2download).
1. When you have finished these downloads, open **File explorer** > **Downloads**. Right-click the zipped folder that you just downloaded, and select **Extract all** > **Extract** to unzip it.
1. Connect your HoloLens to your PC using a USB-A to USB-C cable . (Even if you've been using other cables to connect your HoloLens, this one works best.)
1. The Advanced Recovery Companion automatically detects your HoloLens. Select the **Microsoft HoloLens** tile.
1. On the next screen, select **Manual package selection** and then select the installation file contained in the folder that you unzipped in step 4. (Look for a file with the .ffu extension.)
1. Select **Install software**, and follow the instructions.
## Go back to a previous version (HoloLens (1st gen))
In some cases, you might want to go back to a previous version of the HoloLens software. You can do this by using the Windows Device Recovery Tool to reset your HoloLens to the earlier version.
> [!NOTE]
> Going back to an earlier version deletes your personal files and settings.
To go back to a previous version of HoloLens (1st gen), follow these steps:
1. Make sure that you don't have any phones or Windows devices plugged in to your PC.
1. On your PC, download the [Windows Device Recovery Tool (WDRT)](https://support.microsoft.com/help/12379).
1. Download the [HoloLens Anniversary Update recovery package](https://aka.ms/hololensrecovery).
1. When the downloads finish, open **File explorer** > **Downloads**. Right-click the zipped folder you just downloaded, and select **Extract all** > **Extract** to unzip it.
1. Connect your HoloLens to your PC using the micro-USB cable that it came with. (Even if you've been using other cables to connect your HoloLens, this one works best.)
1. The WDRT will automatically detect your HoloLens. Select the **Microsoft HoloLens** tile.
1. On the next screen, select **Manual package selection** and choose the installation file contained in the folder you unzipped in step 4. (Look for a file with the .ffu extension.)
1. Select **Install software**, and follow the instructions.
> [!NOTE]
> If the WDRT doesn't detect your HoloLens, try restarting your PC. If that doesn't work, select **My device was not detected**, select **Microsoft HoloLens**, and then follow the instructions.

# HoloLens (1st gen) fit and comfort frequently asked questions
Here are some tips on how to stay comfortable and have the best experience using your HoloLens.
For step-by-step instructions and a video about putting on and adjusting your device, see [Get your HoloLens (1st gen) ready to use](hololens1-setup.md).
> [!NOTE]
> The fit and comfort tips in this topic are meant only as general guidance&mdash;they don't replace any laws or regulations, or your good judgment when using HoloLens. Stay safe, and have fun!
Here are some tips on how to stay comfortable and have the best experience using your HoloLens.
## I'm experiencing discomfort when I use my device. What should I do?
If you experience discomfort, take a break until you feel better. Try sitting in a well-lit room and relaxing for a bit. The next time your use your HoloLens, try using it for a shorter period of time at first.
For more information, see [Health and safety on HoloLens](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=746661).
## I can't see the whole holographic frame, or my holograms are cut off
To see the top edge of the holographic frame, move the device so it sits higher on your head, or angle the headband up slightly in front. To see the bottom edge, move the device to sit lower on your head, or angle the headband down slightly in front. If the left or right edge of the view frame isn't visible, make sure the HoloLens visor is centered on your forehead.
## I need to look up or down to see holograms
Try adjusting the position of your device visor so the holographic frame matches your natural gaze. Here's how:
- **If you need to look up to see holograms**. First, shift the back of the headband a bit higher on your head. Then use one hand to hold the headband in place and the other to gently rotate the visor so you have a good view of the holographic frame.
- **If you need to look down to see holograms**. First, shift the back of the headband a bit lower on your head. Then place your thumbs under the device arms and your index fingers on top of the headband, and gently squeeze with your thumbs to rotate the visor so you have a good view of the holographic frame.
## The device slides down when I'm using it, or I need to make the headband too tight to keep it secure
The overhead strap can help keep your HoloLens secure on your head, particularly if you're moving around a lot. The strap may also let you loosen the headband a bit. [Learn how to use it](hololens1-setup.md#adjust-fit).
You can also experiment with the positioning of the headband&mdash;depending on your head size and shape, you may need to slide it up or down to reposition it on your forehead.
## My HoloLens feels heavy on my nose
If your HoloLens is adjusted correctly, the nose pad should rest lightly on your nose. If it feels heavy on your nose, try rotating the visor up or adjusting the angle of the headband. You can also slide the device visor out&mdash;grasp the device arms just behind the visor and pull forward gently.
## How can I adjust HoloLens to fit with my glasses?
The device visor can slide in and out to accommodate eyewear. Grasp the device arms just behind the visor and pull forward gently to adjust it.
## My arm gets tired when I use gestures. What can I do?
When using gestures, there's no need to extend your arm out far from your body. Keep it closer to your side, where it's more comfortable and will get less tired. [Learn more about gestures](hololens1-basic-usage.md#use-hololens-with-your-hands).

# HoloLens 2 fit and comfort frequently asked questions
Here are some tips on how to stay comfortable and have the best experience using your HoloLens.
For step-by-step instructions and a video about putting on and adjusting your device, see [Get your HoloLens 2 ready to use](hololens2-setup.md).
> [!NOTE]
> The fit and comfort tips in this topic are meant only as general guidance&mdash;they don't replace any laws or regulations, or your good judgment when using HoloLens. Stay safe, and have fun!
Here are some tips on how to stay comfortable and have the best experience using your HoloLens.
## I'm experiencing discomfort when I use my device. What should I do?
If you experience discomfort, take a break until you feel better. Try sitting in a well-lit room and relaxing for a bit. The next time your use your HoloLens, try using it for a shorter period of time at first.
For more information, see [Health and safety on HoloLens](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=746661).
## I can't see the whole holographic frame, or my holograms are cut off
To see the top edge of the holographic frame, move the device so it sits higher on your head, or angle the headband up slightly in front. To see the bottom edge, move the device to sit lower on your head, or angle the headband down slightly in front. If the left or right edge of the view frame isn't visible, make sure the HoloLens visor is centered on your forehead.
## I need to look up or down to see holograms
Try adjusting the position of your device visor so the holographic frame matches your natural gaze. Here's how:
- **If you need to look up to see holograms**. First, shift the back of the headband a bit higher on your head. Then use one hand to hold the headband in place and the other to gently rotate the visor so you have a good view of the holographic frame.
- **If you need to look down to see holograms**. First, shift the back of the headband a bit lower on your head. Then place your thumbs under the device arms and your index fingers on top of the headband, and gently squeeze with your thumbs to rotate the visor so you have a good view of the holographic frame.
## The device slides down when I'm using it, or I need to make the headband too tight to keep it secure
The overhead strap can help keep your HoloLens secure on your head, particularly if you're moving around a lot. The strap may also let you loosen the headband a bit. [Learn how to use it](hololens2-setup.md#adjust-fit).
You can also experiment with the positioning of the headband&mdash;depending on your head size and shape, you may need to slide it up or down to reposition it on your forehead.
## How can I adjust HoloLens to fit with my glasses?
To accommodate eyewear, you can tilt the visor.
## My arm gets tired when I use gestures. What can I do?
When using gestures, there's no need to extend your arm out far from your body. Keep it closer to your side, where it's more comfortable and will get less tired. You can also use hand rays to interact with holograms without raising your arms [Learn more about gestures and hand rays](hololens2-basic-usage.md#the-hand-tracking-frame).
And be sure to try out [voice commands](hololens-cortana.md).

## Introduction
The ability to manage devices from the cloud has dramatically simplified IT deployment and provisioning across the lifecycle. With Device Firmware Configuration Interface (DFCI) profiles built into Microsoft Intune (now available in public preview), Surface UEFI management extends the modern management stack down to the UEFI hardware level. DFCI supports zero-touch provisioning, eliminates BIOS passwords, provides control of security settings including boot options and built-in peripherals, and lays the groundwork for advanced security scenarios in the future.

Until now, managing firmware required enrolling devices into Surface Enterprise Management Mode (SEMM) with the overhead of ongoing manual IT-intensive tasks. As an example, SEMM requires IT staff to physically access each PC to enter a two-digit pin as part of the certificate management process. Although SEMM remains a good solution for organizations in a strictly on-premises environment, its complexity and IT-intensive requirements make it costly to use.
Now with newly integrated UEFI firmware management capabilities in Microsoft Intune, the ability to lock down hardware is simplified and easier to use with new features for provisioning, security, and streamlined updating all in a single console.
Now with newly integrated UEFI firmware management capabilities in Microsoft Intune, the ability to lock down hardware is simplified and easier to use with new features for provisioning, security, and streamlined updating all in a single console, now unified as [Microsoft Endpoint Manager](https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/microsoft-endpoint-manager). The following figure shows UEFI settings viewed directly on the device (left) and viewed in the Endpoint Manager console (right).
DFCI leverages the device profiles capability in Intune and is deployed using Windows Autopilot, eliminating the need for manual interaction by IT admins or end users. A device profile allows you to add and configure settings which can then be deployed to devices enrolled in management within your organization. Once the device receives the device profile, the features and settings are applied automatically. Examples of common device profiles include Email, Device restrictions, VPN, Wi-Fi, and Administrative templates. DFCI is simply an additional device profile that enables you to manage UEFI configuration settings from the cloud without having to maintain a costly on-premises infrastructure.

DFCI includes a streamlined set of UEFI configuration policies that provide an extra level of security by locking down devices at the hardware level. DFCI is designed to be used in conjunction with mobile device management settings at the software level. Note that DFCI settings only affect hardware components built into Surface devices and do not extend to attached peripherals such as USB webcams. (However, you can use Device restriction policies in Intune to turn off access to attached peripherals at the software level).
You configure DFCI policy settings by editing the DFCI profile:
You configure DFCI policy settings by editing the DFCI profile from Endpoint Manager, as shown in the figure below.

### Block user access to UEFI settings
For many customers, the ability to block users from changing UEFI settings is critically important and a primary reason to use DFCI. As listed in the followng table, this is managed via the setting **Allow local user to change UEFI settings**. If you do not edit or configure this setting, local users will be able to change any UEFI setting not managed by Intune. Therefore, its highly recommended to disable **Allow local user to change UEFI settings.**

The rest of the DFCI settings enable you to turn off functionality that would otherwise be available to users. For example, if you need to protect sensitive information in highly secure areas, you can disable the camera, and if you dont want users booting from USB drives, you can disable that also.

Although Intune policy settings typically get applied almost immediately, there may be a delay of 10 minutes before the settings take effect on targeted devices. In rare circumstances, delays of up to 8 hours are possible. To ensure settings apply as soon as possible, (such as in test scenarios), you can manually sync the target devices.
