Rotate through available EyeTv aspect ratios

This script works like a macro, and uses Apple's UI Scripting to tell EyeTV to rotate through the available aspect ratios. As there is no command to find out what aspect ratio the machine is presently in, each time this script changes the aspect ratio, it writes that data to int.txt, which is read each time this script runs.

Create a folder called EyeTV Scripts in Applications before saving the following script. For convenience, you still need to trigger this script with a keyboard shortcut, remote, or Bluetooth phone.

[robg adds: I haven't tested this one. I'll also note that the submitter, Crackle, is the author of the package GenieCommands, from which this script was sourced. I felt, though, that this tip might be useful to other EyeTV owners out there, and it doesn't require GenieCommands to work, so here it is.]
