On my SX540 HS, I would like to video our church service (about an hour long). However, I cannot monitor the camera and it appears to shut off after about 15-20 minutes. Is there a way to extend the video time so it runs the entire hour without monitoring? I thought I used to be able to do this, so it may be a setting has gotten changed that I am unaware of.
If there is not a way to correct it, would resetting it to default settings possibly fix it? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks for anything you can suggest!

You will need a video camera to record any longer than 30 minutes without re-starting the recording. The 30-minute record limit is imposed by Canon on their still picture cameras and cannot be changed.
