To be accepted in this forum or at DSDA, record with any engine that you like. Having said that, there is a definite preference for engines that emulate Doom2.exe, as this makes direct time comparisons more meaningful. So that would mean prboom+ with -complevel 2 or chocolate-doom, if you prefer not to use the "vanilla" exe.
To be accepted at compet-n, you must record with Doom2's Doom2.exe. That might mean that you need to run it under Dosbox if you use XP, but that depends on which service pack or upgrades you have installed. Some XP users can run Doom2.exe just fine, albeit normally with sound turned off.
Radek's 26:09 is indeed still the fastest normally-recorded Doom2 UV movie run.
Regarding how to record, read the sticky threads in this forum, and if you then have specific questions, ask them. But the command line to record a doom2 run on UV would be:
doom2 -warp 01 -skill 4 -record 30uvxxxx
or analogously with ports, e.g.:
prboom-plus -iwad doom2.wad -warp 01 -skill 4 -complevel 2 -record 30uvxxxx
