I forgot to mention that this is a frontend-only system, with no capture cards. It's connected to a backend that serves other frontends successfully. Also, this frontend has no trouble seeing content other than video on the backend -- that is, it sees the list of recordings, system status information, can schedule items for recording on the backend, etc. Thanks again for the replies.
