 I noticed that [16532] (referenced in 0.22 release notes) mentions a
 screenshot can be captured via
 http://<frontendhost>:6547/MythFE/GetScreenShot.

 However when trying this on my frontends my browser just gets an empty
 body (no content, but also no errors).

 But I can successfully take screenshot using the "jump snapshot" command
 when connecting via telnet to port 6546, as well as by assigning and using
 a key on my remote.

 The frontend log file shows some warnings and errors (e.g. "QPixmap: It is
 not safe to use pixmaps outside the GUI thread") when connecting to
 http://<frontendhost>:6547/MythFE/GetScreenShot is attached.

 (NB some of the messages are captured on stderr, not stdout).
