Jaynis, please retry the command, without using sudo.
$ /usr/lib/unity-scope-video-remote/unity-scope-video-remote
If it answers:
"Failed to own name net.launchpad.scope.RemoteVideos. Bailing out."
It will mean the scope is already running.

Then, visit the adress:
http://videosearch.ubuntu.com/v0/search?test
If you see a long line of results beginning with [{"url": 
"http://videosearch.ubuntu.com/v0
It will mean you can connect to the server.

If any of these tests fail, I would recommend purging and re-installing both 
packages with:
$ sudo apt-get purge unity-lens-video unity-scope-video-remote
$ sudo apt-get install unity-lens-video unity-scope-video-remote

Then, log out and log in.

By any chance, do any of you have tested Ubuntu TV a few months ago? It
could be an explanation: the old Ubuntu TV files conflict with the video
lens.
