Anyway, I uploaded a video of me shifting to my lower cogs and back...but as you see, the derailleur doesn't move. Sorry that it's 5.5 megs.

Here's what I got from the movie (no problem with that file size, BTW):
I can hear you shifting, but I don't see the derailleur moving at all (but, you already know that). This would tell me that you still have slack in the cable somehow. So, here's the drill again:
1. Loosen pinch bolt.
2. Up shift completely (w/small lever - as many clicks as you can).
3. Squeeze brake and check cable anchor head seating - you should be able to look straight at it, in a line with the cable, from the side of the bike.
4. If cable anchor head is seated and STI is completely up shifted, make sure any barrel shifters are screwed in all the way CW.
5. Pull slack out of cable and lock down pinch bolt.
6. Test shifting and adjust cable tension with barrel shifters as needed.
