There's a patch from ANL that fixes this. They're working on bundling it
up with some of the other 2.1.1b fixes for another release. Tom Uram
sent a message to the list a few days ago. I've included it for the link
to the new VideoProducerService.zip file and the directions.
Take care,

This is a known problem with the video producer. A fixed video producer
service package is available at:
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/fl/research/accessgrid/software/releases/2.1.1/patch/VideoProducerService.zip
This file should be placed as is in the directory that holds services,
on the machine running the NodeService (the display machine in
multi-machine nodes):
Windows: InstallDir\services
Linux: /usr/share/AccessGrid/services
With this in place, you should get a pulldown menu for the port when
configuring a video producer service, and vic should use that port
correctly. The practical effect of this problem is blue streams, or
black/white streams.
We will be issuing a bug-fix release soon, when it's ready and
well-tested, which will include this fix and others reported against the
last release (2.1.1 and its variants).
