I did reboot this evening after seeing the race wasn't recorded but this morning I manually stopped the service from the start menu npvr group stop npvr recording service shortcut and the service stopped window came up, I reapplied all patches just in case I had missed 1 earlier then I used the start npvr recording service shortcut and got the started window then I started npvr and scheduled the race recording.

trust me, ndigitalhost.exe is blocked. That's the whole problem.

Apparently I'm too dense to understand, I have some recordings by the 2250 that work fine and others that don't, if ndigitalhost was blocked wouldn't they all be blocked? What would block ndigitalhost, the only firewall I have running is windows firewall and I've given npvr and ndigitalhost permission.

the 2650 doesn't use ndigitalhost. You have no recordings by the 2250 since march 2nd.
I explained how to unblock the files in the skip patch post... Read where it says "IMPORTANT NOTE".

I use 7zip to extract to a folder then move the files to npvr. I know I have no new recordings by the 2250 but this isn't a new problem it's been an ongoing problem where sometimes it works great for a week or 2 then I'll get a bunch of failed recordings that's why I wiped the pc and reloaded a month ago hoping to solve this problem and the freezes when skipping. I started adding the skip patches to help the freezing problems and they have helped some but I still get an occasional freeze when watching and there is a skip and now my comskips are miles off.

try running ndigitalhost.exe directly from windows, see if it prompts you to run it or not.. I can only go with what's in your logs now, and right now they say ndigitalhost.exe doesn't run at all, which causes most of NRecord to hang.

Ran ndigitalhost manually and a window popped up with a check mark in a box that said ask before running files of this type, I took the check out and scheduled a recording and it worked. Beats me how the check got in the box and how to keep it from happening again.

that is a mystery... If you used 7-zip to extract the file then it shouldn't have been blocked. Don't you just love how windows helps you at every turn?
