screenshots?

Is there any way to capture the content of a screen? Something along the lines of print screen, cut/copy/paste, view source, or save-as.

Thanks in advance.

Re: screenshots?

We do not currently provide this capability on the Roku box.

Re: screenshots?

I too have tried to figure out a way to get screenshots. I have toyed with finding some sort of video recorder to put in between the Roku box and the output screen (TV, monitor, etc). I have not had any success yet.

The other thing I am trying is setting my still camera on a tripod, turning all the lights off and taking pictures with the timer on my camera. So far it seems to be working. 🙂

That's what I did; the best way (at least for HD) would be to capture the component output with the Intensity Pro card or the Hauppauge (sp?) 1212, $150-$200 solutions.

Bump. This would definitely be handy.
