Hi, Thanks for the quick answer.

That makes sense. My settings are:

Idle Shutdown timeout is set to 350 sec.
Max wait for recording is set to 5 minutes
Start before record is set to 125 sec.

I have now set 'Max wait for recording' to 10 minutes, in order to
have it bigger than the 'idle shutdown timeout'. I suspect that this
is what was causing trouble. Can anyone confirm this?

Cheers,
Paul
