Hey im hoping someone can help me.

I just recorded some gameplay and it come out at about 21GB for 15 mins, i tryed using moviemaker but it just shows a still image after so long for some reason i dont know if the file is too big for it? Also its coming out at really bad quality.

Basicly does anyone know how i can get the most out of the quality to put on youtube without it being too big? Help very much appreciated :)

I recorded it with Xfire btw if that makes a difference?
 
What format is it in now? What resolution? What framerate? If possible, you'll want to keep both the same as they are now. If you change the framerate, you'll probably have to demux the audio and video, convert them seperately and remux them, or else the audo and video will probably be desynchronised.

You'll have to split it as well - 10 minutes max on Youtube.
 
Download Handbreak, it's the best free video converter imo. Just use that video as a source and pick a default setup type to convert to.
Dead easy and good results.
