I used to use the LTL connection from leader to tippet however this year I dropped using it for a number of reasons. I tried the double surgeon's knot too but have found tying my tippet in using my hemostat to be quick and easy and I've had no problems with the knot.

One comment on the video though - it's wrong! If you listen to the guy he says to "tease the long tippet end thru the knot" which implies he grabs the tag end of the leader and the long tippet section with the hemostat. however in the video he grabs both tag ends. this results in a knot that sticks out at a 90degree angle to the line.

there's also a clinch-knot version using hemostats but I haven't tried that.
