 This is what I did:
 1. Started the media player (using the FreeRunner directly, clicking on
 it's screen).
 2. ssh root at 192.168.0.202
 3. export DISPLAY=:0.0
 4. gpe-scap
 5. Clicked on Save (suggested location of file is
 /home/root/Screenshot-2.png)

 Expected results
 6. The file is saved

 Actual results
 6. A popup dialog appears,
 title: <unnamed>
 icon: red circle, white horizontal line
 text: Error saving screenshot: Value for PNG text chunk CREATOR cannot be
 converted to ISO-8859-1 encoding.
 buttons: Close

 In my shell (via ssh) I get a bunch of
 (gpe-scap:1513): Gdk-WARNING **: Error converting from UTF-8 to STRING:
 Conversion from character set 'UTF-8' to 'ISO-8859-1' is not supported
