I'm not sure I was hoping the video being slowed down would help but I can't tell
Its not setting the pan off. I'm going to try fresh powder in the pan primer in the morning and see if that helps.

More than enough spark and 3F should ignite fine. The problem lies elsewhere. The video is too dark to see what's happening after the spark. I tried watching that video multiple times and the best I could get out of it is guessing that maybe the flint is striking the frizzen too low and so it's not opening fast enough or far enough for the spark to get down into the pan. I couldn't determine how the flint was mounted, but maybe you could try flipping it over and see if that helps, or shimming the leather so the flint strikes the frizzen higher.
With the cock down, and the frizzen open, looking from the right side perpendicular to the barrel, check the position of the edge of the flint. Is it aiming right at the flash hole or is it in front of or behind the hole. A lock with proper geometry and with the appropriate sized flint should drop the sparks right into the middle of the pan, right into the priming charge.
wiscoaster may be on to your issue. Is the frizzen going full open? If you still have issues after doing wisecoater's suggestions, send another video only with more light so we can see the mechanics. Your spark is adequate.
Agree with Wiscoaster. The powder is fine and we see plenty of sparks. Something else is amiss here.
No I dont I can try that. Which way do you think the flint needs turned up or down
