      @Floob Hi! I wanted to edit some of the overlays in rv-video-manager. I copied my edited versions back to the pi with the same file name on overwrote the old in /home/pi/rp-video-manager/1080p_4-3

      When I restarted my pi the old overlays were still being displayed in ES. I double checked my directory and it has my new image files. Are custom overlays for supported emulators possible? Thanks.

        Sure, you can change anything you like.
        Which specific system did you use - trace it back from there.
        e.g. for the megadrive, see what is written in /opt/retropie/configs/megadrive/retroarch.cfg

        That will point you to the actual location of the installed file. Or you can choose to run the install option again, and it will copy the file you wrote to the right place.

        Please read the Docs before asking a new question.
