My squeal was different from yours. mine happened while it started cranking, not after like yours
mine was like a spin up squawk like one of my pulleys was frozen.
Its hard to say but, i did end up replacing my tensioner pulley in the springtime because it looked too wobbly for my liking.

every morning when i come out to my truck and start it (keep in mind this has only been happening since the temp became colder here. so only about the last week.)
but when i start the truck, it makes a very strange sound. almost like a screech. only lasts for about a half second. but its very strange. and i have no idea what it is. and its not a sound like the belt slipping.
and if i let the truck warm up. and then start it again it doesnt do it. only after the motor completely cools down.

Just a thought. Try disconnecting the power to the A/C clutch before you start it the next time with the conditions that make that noise. I don't know why but that's what came to mind when I heard the noise on your video. I may be way off base but it should be a quick check.

mine does it also. i assumed it was the belt since it does it only when starting up cold.
as for the whole starting the truck when starting and looking like an idiot with the loud grinding, 08s from canada have a safety device installed. once the truck is running, it doesn't allow it to be started a second time. thus preveting the grinding of the starter and flywheel.

Correction: I didnt take into account that it has been warmer these days and thats why it didnt do the noise anymore. But now that its getting cold again... well its back.
