@Will_Tschumy thanks, looks like its working now except about have way through when returning from a commercial break the video is now freezing. This is beyond frustrating. As I think I am making progress something else happens that sets me back. I am at a loss on what to do. I also have the donor version, I am on 2.5.6 at the moment. I know I am not the only one with the video freezing issue as a google search provided me with plenty of other people with the same issue. Im beginning to wonder if its something with mcebuddy or comskip.
