Put your ISO files in a different path than the SG files, and rescan
your videos. ie if your SG files are on the backend at /media/movies,
put the ISOs in /media/ISO, mount /media/ISO on your remote frontend,
set /media/ISO as the local video path, and scan your videos. Now the
SG videos will be accessed via SG, and the ISOs will be accessed
"locally." Or just remove the video Storage Group and go all
NFS/Samba/whatever.

That would be the aforementioned "you can't play ISOs in Storage Groups."
