The logs below are a sample and splunk seems to deal with them most of the time, occasionally Im seeing the logs merged together and breaking at the --EOR-- point. Recommended settings for props.conf please! Any assistance greatly appreciated, thanks.

BREAK_ONLY_BEFORE=\d{4}\-\d{2}\-\d{2}T\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}\.\d{3}
SHOULD_LINEMERGE=true

This should break the event before the next timestamp, which is effectively at the after the --EOR-- mark. Your event will thus run from the timestamp up to (and including) the --EOR--.

[source::.../mylogs/*.log]
BREAK_ONLY_BEFORE_DATE = true

should work. You need not add anything, check and let us know

The end of each event is the --EOR-- The start is the date time
