also heres a video i took of my squeeling engine, i started it with my A/C on and when i turned it off for some reason the sound seems to slow down.

There's two idler pulley's You might try checkin' the other one too. The big pulley your talkin' about is your harmonic balancer and they usually don't squeak, they explode.
If you get your belt too tight it will make it squeak like that also.
