For this approach, it is better to use a conditional definition:
\begin{htmlonly}
\newcommand{\screenshot}[2]{%
\begin{figure}[H]
\htmladdimg{../#1}%%% <--- get the path right here !
\caption{#2}%
\end{figure}%
}
\end{htmlonly}
%begin{latexonly}
\newcommand{\screenshot}[2]{%
\begin{center}%
\includegraphics{#1}%
\end{center}%
}
%end{latexonly}
so that LaTeX2HTML (and pdfTeX, for that matter) doesn't
have to carry around twice the baggage whenever \screenshot
is used.

I'm surprised that using \graphicspath was not enough.
You could try setting paths directly, using $GRAPHICS_PATH .
Hope this helps,
