turn off auto-off??

[LAfilmaker]

i was using my dvx100a for i-mag recently. we were iso-recording to a dvd recorder and betadeck so i had no need to run tape in the camera. but when in camera mode if you are not recording it will automatically power down after about 5 minutes. i scoured the menu and found nothing...can anyone help??

Take the tape out, it will not turn off.

Also, change Tape Protect from "pwr off" to "stby" and your camera will never turn off by itself again. (well, unless the battery runs out...)
