Question / Help My recording randomly stops...then starts again on its own!

So I have been having this issue recently, it only seems to happen when trying to record Call of Duty Mobile. My recording seems to shut off completely on its own, I have no key-binds for stopping/starting my recording and I checked to make sure I had no output timer on. I use NDI to record my sessions and I am running the game through an emulator. However my recording will literally just stop and then start again at a random interval later, without me doing anything!

It also reflects in the recordings, I will have one file that will end at a certain point in the game. Then later on in the game it will just resume, all without me initiating either process. My initial thought was that it had something to do with the anti-cheat of the game, but I am sending my gameplay over my network to my other OBS on my recording PC if there was going to be an issue I would assume it would be on the computer that I am gaming on, yet my record is tampered with on a computer that isnt even running the game nor has the emulator installed...

I'm not sure what can be gleaned from the logs, but I have included one here for reference nonetheless. It should reflect the following since this is what essentially happened irl, PLEASE NOTE that in the log file the recordings before 06:06:44.485 AM were just test recordings to make sure everything was working, starting at 06:06:44.485 and onward was when I actually began recording.

1st clip: I started my recording and then it ended on its own about 8 minutes later (according to my file)
2nd clip: lasted for about 1 second and reflected the moments after the previous recording stopped (I assume it was trying to start again)
3rd clip: again lasted for 1 second and reflected the moments just after the previous 1 second (again I assume it was trying to resume the recording)
4th clip:I noticed the recording was off and started it again manually (in this occasion it didn't start again on its own but in my previous recording session it did)

It has just been some days since I did that recording session so the logs are no longer there

You should be able to see this result in the log files, I just don't know if there would be anything in there that indicates a failure of some kind that resulted in the recording cancellation. Also to reiterate, this literally only happens on this game, I have recorded both PC and Xbox content since this happened before and this issue hasn't reared its head until I tried to record COD Mobile again. Let me know guys, thanks so much for taking the time to read this.

P.S - The only thing I can think of trying is using my capture card to capture my gameplay instead of using NDI because maybe the program is reacting to OBS as a cheating software and then sending some sort of signal to my gaming rigs OBS which is somehow communicating with my recording rigs OBS via my network since I'm using NDI and creating an issue. I'll try that sometime later today, in the meantime I'm running a virus scan because this stuff is freaking me out, I feel like I'm haunted lol
