Check that the DNS domain names are also set correctly on both. I've found that
there are two locations for the domain name in Windows, used for different
things, that I've never been able to sort out. One is in the obvious tcp/ip
settings (properties, advanced, dns). The other is in
Control-panel/system/computer-name/"change"/"more" - you'll notice there
sometimes your computer name is shown without a domain suffix. If I didn't have
both set, I found some problems connecting between machines on a multinode
system. Similar issue under Linux, although it's harder to miss providing the
DNS name :-)
Either OS, it looked like it would connect to 'machine.example.com', but the
response came back from 'machine' and that was rejected.
Then of course there's the time issue - need to make sure they are ntp'ed to
keep their clocks within cooee of each other :-)
Does the videoproducerservice log on the capture machine show it being called
everytime you change venue? That'd clarify if the commands are going ok in both
directions or only one direction.

Uhm... Can't really help you there :-)
