Yes, I have seen the video several times and will need to continue studying it.
So far, I have noticed that the thumb is taking care of the sixth and fifth string. The thumb also plays the fourth string. However, sometimes the index finger plays the fourth string.
I have watched the first bar of the video several times but am embarrassed to say that I'm not sure if the first string is being played by the ring or middle finger.
I think I will follow si16's advice and let the ring finger take care of the first string throughout the song.
The ring finger feels weaker than the middle when plucking the first string but the advantage of this method is that you don't have to move the hand around as much.
