This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here is that the user had a nested RFG and wanted to use the value of the parent RFG to determine the display of the child field
Solution:
All that is needed is to write your conditional using the parent shortcode value.
[wpv-conditional if="('[wpv-post-id item="@class-chapter-video.parent"]' ne '' )" ] <i class="far fa-play-circle"></i>[/wpv-conditional]
The above is an example of how this looks.

I have a View set up that displays a play icon in a menu when a certain Custom Field is not empty. It has always worked in the past. Now when I add a new Online Class Chapter and select the Class Chapter Video from the dropdown, the play icon is not displayed.
I tested this on a staging site I set up a month or two ago, and it is working correctly.
I created a copy of my current site and put it at hidden link. I tried using theme TwentyNineteen. The problem persists. I deactivated all plugins except Toolset and the problem still persists.
Thank you Shane!
Thank you for the information about debugging the condition. This will be very useful!!
I added the debug code to the View on the live site and took a screenshot. You can see that for the chapter above the problematic one, the condition sees the video field as filled with the post id. In the problematic one, the field seems to be empty.
I think the error message on the staging site is due to my hosting account being full (too many staging copies) so I will work on deleting those. I can always make another one.
