Re: Announcing: DVArchive client for Roku HD-1000

The ReplayTV records from composite or S-Video inputs, and is alway 480i. 
Quality is reasonable, but certainly not HD, and also not as good as a direct
digital stream recorder like the DirecTivo could do.

I was looking for a way to dump the screen bitmap image to a file to get a
screen shot.  I'm sure there is a simple way to do this on the Roku, but I
can't find it.  If someone explain how to get a screen shot or to
programmatically save the screen bitmap to a file, I'll make one.  The app is
currently pretty simple - just 3 spinner controllers, one to select the
ReplayTV, one to select the category, and one to select the show.  The bottom
of the screen shows the show description.
