If you have a video of your run, which complies with the game and category rules, you are fine. In most cases you can even record runs on consoles with your phone.

Also, by "software for time" I assume you talk about Livesplit? Livesplit is never required for submissions, most games (must) have exact timing rules down to the start and ending frames, and you or the moderators can time the run based on the video of the run alone.

Also, this question probably belongs to the speedrunning forum.

Moved to the Speedrunning section.
