Video Manager tool by Floob

Tool to quickly update video modes in RetroPie. This will swap between default, shaders and overlays. Designed to emulate a CRT experience on a hi-def TV.

Supports RetroPie 3 and above. I would suggest using at least RetroPie 3.8.1. And it WILL overwrite any custom edits you may have made to system specific retroarch.cfg files. BACKUP before you use this!!
