Sometimes I make movies...

I installed a garage door opener last week. Want to see how I did it? Check out the latest episode of Now This is Happening.

I would screw a metal brace (maybe 1/2" by 10") on the remaining wood on each face of the beam you cut out. It looks, from your video, like it is a weight bearing beam....and, if so, it might simply crack

In any case...good job

I was totally expecting that stringer to snap and pull the roof down. The suspense was terrible!
