Since last night, however, no shows are listed when I go to Media Library -> Watch Recording, although I have confirmed via the 'recorded' table in MySQL and by looking at the filesystem that the shows are still there.

I've sometimes seen a small refresh problem after I have moved some recordings to a new group, but normally that only happens on a single recording. Exit back to main menu then re-enter recordings view normally fixes it.

Have the shows been deleted or auto expired? Press M once or twice to bring up Group Filter, select, then change to Deleted (can't remember if All Programmes filter shows deleted, I assume it does not).

If all else fails, and given you are already checking the recorded table in MySQL anyway, you could always 'select recgroup, chanid, starttime, basename from recorded;' to see what recording group they are associated with.
