<p>As an example of the memory change monitoring, Let's say we are recording a movie of the game Super C and want to keep track of when the game lags.</p>
<p>The ram address 001C functions as a "lag flag". &nbsp;It will remain 0, then change to a positive value on a frame that the game lags.</p>

<p>We could put 001C in one of the 1st two memory watch edit boxes. &nbsp;Then set the corresponding formula in the memory change monitoring to "&gt; then" (greater than). &nbsp;Now the count will show us how many lag frames occur in the movie.</p>
