Perhaps the site in germany could setup a multicast bridge-server for their venue?
Then you just have to select "Use Unicast" in the venueclient and it will work.
What you can also do, is start vic and rat manually

vic -t127 unicastadr/port
rat -t127 unicastadr/port

as sort of workarround on both sides. But you cannot use shared apps that way 
round as far as I see.
