Seems like it might be working I'll just have to wait awhile to see if it keeps scanning. I'll update later.

Verbose was 0 so I set it to 10. Also, does it matter where I stick the output_default setting?

It does seem to be processing, although some do get this error:
PW Exit: System.InvalidOperationException: No process is associated with this object.
at System.Diagnostics.Process.EnsureState(State state)
at System.Diagnostics.Process.get_HasExited()
at System.Diagnostics.Process.EnsureState(State state)
at System.Diagnostics.Process.get_ExitCode()
at Durrant.DVRMSFileWatcher.ProcessWrap.ap_Exited(Object sender, EventArgs e)

Does it automatically create a log? I can't seem to find one.

It does not matter, can be anywhere in the ini file
COuld you manually test the recording that raises the error.
Drag and drop the recording on ComskipGUI.exe, a black and white video window will appear, and see if it processes the file till the end

Will do this weekend. I was waiting for it to process everything in recordedtv, which it did. It started when I cleared everything out. The thing I noticed though is that it isn't automatically picking up new recordings since then. Just what was sitting in there after I cleared out. Could there be a watch setting or timing I overlooked that I could keep an eye out for while I'm working on testing this weekend?

Also, could there be an old SA remnant that didn't get uninstalled that could be causing it?
