You have a mistake in Step 5, in the 630 cage. You say that there has to be a 9 in there, but previously you said there had to be a 9 in the 17 cage in the same row. The factors for 630 have to be 7 x 5 x 6 x 3.
You messed up in part 10/26. Around 1:26 you erase the 4 in the 5 cage stating that there is no 1 so the 4 cannot exist. However the 4 can combine with the 9 to give you 5 which changes the following assumption that 4 must be in the top right corner
Sorry I messed up... meant around 1:56
