How to use the Aspect Ratio Adaptation Utility for Script for users of the Sinden BareBones (9.x) image to quickly and easily adapt the system for use on 4:3 or 5:4 displays.

Always make a backup of your image before running a utility such as this one. You do so at our own risk.

If you already have an older version of the script, you should delete it first. It will not be overwritten by the wget command below.

If running from the Pi itself with a connected keyboard, press F4 to exit EmulationStation and reach the command line. Or you can connect to your Pi via SSH using a reliable utility such as PuTTY. From the command line, type the following:

Unfortunately it's not possible to write the commands in the YouTube description as YouTube abbreviates the address of the file in the wget command. So go and check the GitHub repo linked above for the comprehensive and easy-to-follow instructions.
