Bruce give me a short explanation of it before i wrote those lovely lines

There's a few explanation in the MPLAB help-file too.

EDIT: Oups sorry Luciano

Ah Ive almost got it now. I downloaded MPLAB IDE v7.22 and loaded up the .asm file that picbasic pro compiled. I started the stopwatch and ran the program with MPLAB SIM as the tool but it just ends up saying "Time (mSec) 3.276800". How can I use it to measure the time between two points in my program?

My TV is NTSC.

The link below is about PAL and the main power frequency is 50 Hz.

I based my code on the ASM example given in that link. Since both PAL and NTSC use the same signal structure it should work on my TV. I dont have a vertical synch inserted so it just repeats the same thing (synch, pause, gray, white, gray) over and over again.

I followed the Spark Fun MPLAB Stopwatch tutorial and I understand that now but I can not get it to work with my program. I have started a new project and imported the .asm file created by picbasic pro but when I click build it gives me tons of errors. Shouldnt the .asm file be correct?

You have to download the PBP MPLAB plugin

Then you don't need to use the asm file. Start a new project with the wizard, choose PBP as toolsuite, and set your breakpoint directly in your PBP code lines. That's it
