In future, please tell us the timestamp of the part you want us to listen to. We shouldn't have to watch from the start and wait for the quote.

"I'm right there with you" means "I'm in the same situation as you". "Just for the record" is a bit like saying "I'm just letting you know" or "Let me make this clear".

Thank you so much. Sorry for the trouble caused to you. The specific part of the video that I'm baffled with is from the 17th to the 19th second of it where the sentence "So I'm right there with you just for the record" was said by the gentleman. I want to nail down the exact meaning of the sentence in that context. Thank you indeed!

I cannot improve on the lucid interpretations given by @emsr2d2. Could you please help us understand what is still puzzling you.

Thanks. Ok, here is what I'm asking. In the video, the pc building vloger said " ...Sure, it's bold of me to assume you all have pc building friends in real life, but I'm sure there are some of you out there. I literally only talk about PCs to my wife and my employees, so I'm right there with you just for the record..." I can understand literally every sentence in the quote, but I can't connect them logically. So what's the point of the quote? Please help me out. Thank you so much!

Okay let's try this. "I'm right there with you" means "I completely understand and agree with your thoughts on the matter."

As for "just for the record", in addition to the interpretation given by @emsr2d2 it could mean "just in case anyone has any doubt" or as people sometimes say in AmE: I'm just saying.
