How get the Vixia HF G20 to stay on indefinitely, not automatically shut off? I put it in my attic to stream images of local nature down to a screen in the living room. I want it to work several hours at a time, not shut itself off after a minute or two of disuse. I have tried and failed with both Manual and Auto settings, and with and without a battery, but always drawing wall current.

Hi Ebardach,
When you turn the Auto Power Off setting to "OFF", as described on page 147 of the VIXIA HF G20 Instruction Manual, the camcorder should stay on.
