      HI.
      i have compiled an other emulationstation version from source and tested it outside of retropie and its working.
      now i want to change the stock emulationstation that comes with retropie by this one
      how to do that ?
      thank you!

        Edit the autostart.sh file (see here) and remove the default emulationstation line, then add the full path to your custom version.

            @rostomzer It should work, but if you're updating RetroPie, it will get overwritten and you'll get back the previous version.
