I've seen that video too - took apart mine but saw nothing of concern there. Just be careful taking apart the slide - the top part needs to be bent quite a bit to take it off - don't break it.
I do get misfeeds if there are not enough primers in the slide. Remember, they are gravity fed, so if there is not enough in the slide portion of the feeder, there is not enough force to slide them in place (they do slide horizontally at the bottom so they need several behind them).
I typically make sure that the whole slide is full - you can see them thru the groove in top cover of the slide. Having a lamp directly above the press will provide a good view of that area.

On the other hand, glad to see you walk away from the press for a bit instead of forcing things. :oops:

Primer's bite is worse than it's bark!!! :o
