You need a screen recording software, like OBS or nVidia ShadowPlay (both support hardware accelerated encoding), or you can also use Windows 10 build in Game DVR.

nVidia ShadowPlay is probably the better one in terms of simplicity + performance + options, if you have an nVidia GPU. OBS is very flexible on the long run, it has very professional settings, if you want to take your time to customize it.

Windows 10 Game DVR works with any hardware.

After you've setup your screen recording software, you can start SFV, open your profile + select the replays you wish to encode + start encoding + upload the encoded videos to YouTube or any other video platform afterwards.

For fighting games in general it's visually better to record replays at 60 FPS, which is supported on YouTube, also don't go below 720p for your uploads. Recording while playing online (steaming) is not recommended, because it affects the online lag.

Here is an example for "how to setup" your recording software:

Shadowplay in general is okay, but for some reason it often causes delayed audio when recording SFV on my PC, so I usually use Mirillis Action instead. OBS is also a good alternative since it performs well on most system and has lots of options (can take a while to set up though).

Side note:
It's usually better to record the replays and not the "live gameplay", so that your performance is not crippled (frame drops/ lag).

Thanks for all the advice guys. I was on vacay and totally forgot about this. Im using a AMD card and heard they have something called ReLIve. Anyone have an experience with that program

I use Xbox Game DVR to record. All my vids use it and play at 1080p, 60fps.

ShadowPlay is very good.

I'm just trying out the Windows 10 Game DVR right now. Works well enought and very simple.
Will look into OBS
Thanks for all the advice

I normally use Streamlabs+obs for streaming, but with SFV the only thing that seem to work best was using an old version of OBS Studio 15.4. That version will let you game capture it in fullscreen. Almost no other games have an issue expect that specific one.

Her eis the link to that information as to why.
