It seems like you have the symptoms of a bad wheel bearing. Another clue is if you hear it when making slow turns like in a parking lot, but only when you turn the direction that loads up the bad bearing (left turns in this case). It's hard to tell from the video, my bad bearing made a metallic scratching/scraping sound.
Agree with the brake inspection though, it's quick and although unlikely, you might find a rock stuck in the caliper or something. You can also try tightening the axle nut, it's not a permanent fix but if the noise goes away you know it's the hub/bearing.
