Is there a programmatic way to prevent Roku to go to screen

I am working on an application that waits for some time (several hours) and then play some videos and then wait again and then play videos again and so on. Whether it is time to play content or it ...

You Sir, are hardcore. I have respect for someone who can talk to web server over telnet. I am more wimpy and'd do:

    req = createObject("roUrlTransfer")
    req.setUrl("http://localhost:8060/keypress/Lit_+")
    req.postFromString("")
Almost biting my knuckles for being unable to do it in one-liner. Also of note, "localhost" won't do on legacy fw3 (needs proper IP).
