How Do I Set an 8:7 Aspect Ratio?

[simonwoods]

Hello,

I read the MISTer documentation here:
https://mister-devel.github.io/MkDocs_M ... c-settings

It states that I do this by adding this:
[SNES]
custom_aspect_ratio_1=8:7

I tried but it broke the core.

Where do I type that?

Thank You.

; For example:
