“Whenever a new gadget is released, we tech writers have to figure out how to take screenshots of the device. It is important that we are able to show readers what the display looks like when we are describing features,” Kirk McElhearn writes for Macworld. “You may wish to do this too: you may want to capture a screen to share with a friend or you may need to take a screenshot for someone providing tech support.”
“With the Apple TV, it’s not that simple. You can’t take a screenshot on the device itself; at least no one has found that magic sequence of button-presses on the remote that captures the display and sends a photo to your iCloud Photo Library,” McElhearn writes. “But you may still, even if you’re not a tech writer, need to capture images from the Apple TV, if you are, say, a teacher or trainer. You could just take photos of your TV screen, but that never looks very good.”
“There are two ways to grab screenshots of the Apple TV, though one is much better than the other,” McElhearn writes. “I’ll start with the one I don’t use, then explain the better way to do this.”

contra – nice one MDN
Why did anyone downvote this? My guess is that they didn’t understand the reference & thought you were throwing out an insult.
Just take a photo of the screen with an iPhone, works great.
