How do I get around this issue? I'm trying to record a video and no matter what options I pick BizHawk crashes, or I get an unhandled exception and I can't. -_-
No, it cannot. IWRAM is 32KB. Your list has a header IWRAM and then individual entries EWRAM. You want to enter 5 digits, then youre entering EWRAM addresses.
After correcting it to
Domain EWRAM
SystemID GBA
02E534 d u 0 EWRAM
02E630 d u 0 EWRAM
02F050 d u 0 EWRAM
02F120 d u 0 EWRAM
02F740 d u 0 EWRAM
02FDE8 d u 0 EWRAM
02FF48 d u 0 EWRAM
02E560 d u 0 EWRAM
It still won't let me edit 5 digits; erasing 1 of the digits gets me stuck to 4 digits only at the same interface.
Edit: Correcting as in changing the domain then resaving it.
jlun2, the actual bug is that when you edit a watch on memdomain X, the editor changes it to memdomain Y. I just fixed that. The digit rules have been followed correctly all along.
Heisanevilgenius, there are a lot of options. I doubt you tested so many of them that you can extrapolate to all of them. List what options you tried.

If I pick "AVI writer" BizHawk crashes immediately before I can pick another option.
If I pick "FFmpeg writer" it allows me to pick a codec, pick the directory to export it to, and then no matter what codec I pick (I tried all of them, including uncompressed AVI), it gives me an unhandled exception. It doesn't export any video at all and the emulator continues as is. I tried doing it from an NES game, from an Atari 2600 game, and from the main screen before I've even picked a game and the results are all the same. TASVideos recommended using Lagarith, so I downloaded the Lagarith codec, but then it doesn't even show up as an option under FFmpeg and AVI writer still instantly crashes the program.
The last computer I tried this with, AVI writer also instantly crashed the program. And FFmpeg writer worked depending on codec. Some codecs would cause an unhandled exception and others wouldn't. So I just kept using the same codec. With this machine, none of them work. The last computer was a laptop. This is a desktop. Both running Windows 7 64-bit.
I tried installing the prereq installer in case there was something there I didn't get already and that made no difference.
I also tried running it as Administrator and running it in compatibility mode for Windows XP in case it's a 32-bit/64-bit issue. No difference. I also tried clicking the "Alternate Sync" option in case that made a difference. It didn't.
Regarding avi writer, you probably have broken codecs on your system. It doesn't crash for most people. Consider which codec packs you install. Check whether other emulators with video-dumping features have the same problem. Try uninstalling some codec packs or individual codecs. We could get more information about that if you posted the exception stacktrace.
regarding ffmpeg, your system is broken or your bizhawk download is garbage. bizhawk is crashing because it can't find ffmpeg.exe, or because it can't run ffmpeg.exe. You can find out which by trying to run it yourself. Did you run bizhawk's prerequisite installer?
installing lagarith doesn't affect ffmpeg. it would affect the avi writer.
I ran the prereq installer after I already downloaded BizHawk. Could that be the problem? Should I uninstall both, do the prereq first, and then install BizHawk?
Whether savedata should go in savestates is some kind of controversial topic I'm not sure I've ever heard resolved clearly, it's possible for different programmers to have selected different approaches without ever knowing it. Major pain in the butt. Anyway, the needs of TASing should resolve it firmly in favor of keeping savedata in savestates, but many casual gamers hate it.
Responding here so it gets more attention, but would a valid compromise be that savestates during movie recording include save files and exclude them when not recording?
Sorry to bring this up again, but while trying to resync the current Monster House TAS to BizHawk, since the beginning requires a reset, this has a chance of causing desyncs.
I also tried making a savestate before the reset, but for whichever reason even if the movie file was then editted to not even start a new game, the savefile remains if the movie had generated one before.

Bizhawk 1.11.3 is not saving the buttons I chose for hotkeys and controllers. When I close the emulator and open it again, it goes back to deafult. What am I doing wrong?
There is strange behavior in BizHawk when I play Resident Evil: Director's Cut (US version).
Whenever the camera changes to certain angles in certain rooms, the game pops up with the "change controls" menu,
which is strange because as far as I know you can't normally even get to this screen while playing.
Places where this happens:
In the Main Hall 1F underneath the stairs.
Through the blue door on the east side of the Main Hall 1F.
I tried to play in another emulator, NO$PSX, for example, and it didn't have this problem.
This problem also doesn't happen in the original non-Director's Cut version.

What Version of BizHawk are you using?
Can you confirm this on Console (PSX, PS2, PS3)?
Do you know if you got a good dump?
NO$PSX apparently, is VERY inaccurate on PSX tests. So, there's that.
When TAS does Quake 1, SDA will declare war.
The Prince doth arrive he doth please.
You're just fucking stupid, everyone hates you, sorry to tell you the truth. no one likes you, you're someone pretentious and TASes only to be on speed game, but don't have any hope, you won't get there.
Yet another client.SetGameExtraPadding problem:
"Sets the extra padding added to the 'emu' surface so that you can draw HUD elements in predictable placements."
But you can't really draw anything beyond the default game dimensions (right and bottom), the drawings just change the origin. This screenshot shows it.
Script to get this effect:
