For the seat wrap, hold the seat by the handle in front and make sure
your feet are planted good on the craanks. Also you should probably get
more consistent with leg wraps and maybe learn them with the other way.
For learning seatwraps, some people recommend doing half of one, so you
are hopping seat in back, and then doing the other half. I never did
this. It might help also if you just hold onto something and get used to
the motions of the seat wrap.

For the idling, it looks like you can idle pretty well, I'm not sure
what your problem is

Do you want to do leg wraps or seat wraps?

It looks like you're trying to do a leg wrap, not sure why you're
calling it a seat wrap...
But in any case, for leg wraps, I'd recommend getting side-mounts down
first, basically a leg wrap where you start dismounted and as you mount,
wrap your leg from the back of the uni around to the front and onto the
pedal.
When you're learning leg wraps, make sure you're leaning more over the
unicycle, I would always fall off from behind. Kind of push the unicycle
away from the leg that stays on the crank as you're doing the wrap, it
helps you keep your balance better.

Other than that, just practice.

And your idles look fine to me.

I never really understood the difference between a seat wrap an a leg
wrap (if any). Could someone clear that up for me?

A leg wrap just goes around one leg, a seat wrap goes around both. After
you get it around the first leg, you switch the seat into the other hand
when the seat is in back, and then do another backwards leg wrap sorta
thing to get the seat back in front.
