I imagine most folks use some sort of mixer, often with pre-recorded backing tracks, MIDI or BIAB providing the accompaniment.

Some folks record every instrument themselves using a tape or digital recording setup, whatever the backing track it will all go through a mixer along with your steel, either from a direct line or a mic on the steel amp.

Once the backing tracks are prepared and the steel mix is set you will need a video camera with good audio capability that can accept a signal from your mixer. Set it up, focus it, turn it on and have at 'er! Keep at it until you get a take that you like, then you will need some basic video editing software to clean up the audio and video and create a file acceptable by YouTube or other such media server.
