/**
 * A Video recording AppState that records the screen output into an AVI file with
 * M-JPEG content. The file should be playable on any OS in any video player.<br/>
 * The video recording starts when the state is attached and stops when it is detached
 * or the application is quit. You can set the fileName of the file to be written when the
 * state is detached, else the old file will be overwritten. If you specify no file
 * the AppState will attempt to write a file into the user home directory, made unique
 * by a timestamp.
