Has the problem mentioned in one or more reviews about auto-shutoff been fixed in newer versions?

Bought one recently. Still has auto shut off. A little annoying, but tolerable.

It must have been fixed. Mine will stay on as long as sound is passing through it. I've even fallen asleep with the TV on, and it didn't shut off. It will shut off if what you are watching is paused for a while, which it shouldsince there is no ssound playing.

No, there is no way to disable the auto shut off feature. It shuts off after a minute.

As far as I know (and I have the one for cats, not dogs) there is no automatic shut-off.

Not sure what the problem is, but the power button works the same way as any other I've had before. Hold has always force shut down the system. You can probably change those settings in your OS.

From what I have noticed using this it does not have an automatic shut off.

I does automatically shut off. After owning it a couple of months, I find the "computer disk" noise it makes before shutting off wakes me up. It runs about 6 hours but I find it too noisy when turned on and just before it shuts off.

Doesn't seem to be, I have to manually turn it off, even if nothing is actively connected.

In my experience it switches to a "keep warm" setting but does not automatically shut off.

Mine does not have auto shutoff. Any guarantee would need to come from Amazon. That said, their great return policy should not prevent you from getting it.

I actually have the same issue. I have to power cycle it twice a month at least. I had a previous model (not the AC model) that worked for over a year without a power cycle.I was thinking of making use of the ability to schedule a reboot weekly...but I don't think it should be happening this often.

Auto shut off kicks in after 60 seconds of idle. No. You have to touch it/use it within the 60 secs period.

I encountered the same problem, it shuts down itself after being turn on for awhile. This is due to malfunction and bad design of the product. I returned mine to amazon once I found out the issue.

The manual says Auto Shutoff occurs 6 minutes after no activity. I always shut it off after using so I've never tested that feature.
