I'm not sure if it's the belts or if it's the pulleys.

But I'm pretty sure it's one of the two.

There's the video, I don't know what's wrong with it but it does that squeaky sound when the car's first started in the morning or when it's cold at night, it only lasts for about 10 seconds max at night, and I think it's the pulleys because once they've been turning for those 10 seconds it goes away and I don't hear the sound again.

Any ideas?

It's the belts. I don't even need to listen to it to tell you that.

When they're cold, they're contracting a bit, but once they spin up and heat up, they expand back to normal and stop squealing. Just go readjust them

Belt's....maybe even a noisy bearing in the alternator...however that wouldn't go away.

However I would be more concerned with the idel and that awful bucking of the engine....
