Maybe normalize the URI to lower case?

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/video" } {
    pool Video_pool
  }
}

    Honestly, try this just to ensure you're receiving what you think you are:

     

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
  log local0. "The URI we are receiving is [HTTP::uri]"
}

     

    This will at least validate the URI coming in by logging it to the LTM. From there we should be able to find out why it isn't working as expected.
