Under settings->setup->media settings->videos settings->general

Hmmmm..  Maybe someone with more knowledge will chime in.  I remember
having a couple of similar issues going from .22 to .23 (or .21 to .22
- I cannot remember exactly) where it was looking at the local FEs
settings prior.  Once I made all of those settings look for places
that were non-existent, all of the storage groups settings took over
and everything just worked.  You're real close probably, but
unfortunately I do not remember the specifics.
