I don't know of a video, but I replaced the seal on my 13 ft slide last year. It wasn't too difficult.
Be sure to scrape and clean the mounting surface. On mine, the seal clamped onto a 1/2" standing seam. I pulled the slide out about 12 inches. Starting at the top of the slide opening, I was able to push the bulb seal onto the standing seam all the way across the top of the opening. I cut the seal. Overlapping the corner, I then pushed the bulb seal onto the standing seam vertically along the right side opening, then went to left and did the same thing.
Total time to reseal the slide was approx. 3 hours. Voila!!! No leaks to this day even though we have had some tremendous rains with winds.
If you have not purchased your bulb seal, I bought mine from Uni-Grip Inc.
I'll be happy to answer any additional questions.
a.j.
