That's a problem. On my T3 I have the 30 second setting, Background
play, and 15 minutes security AutoLockUp (Security updated to 5.0). And
although the input locks up after the defined period, the T3 keeps
playing all night long (from a full 1GB SD card)

Marek, thanks for this response. A further development is that, if I leave
the Palm with Real One "on top", it seems to keep going. The "power off"
only happens if I leave it with, say, the home screen displayed. So
although this still seems like a fault, I can live with it by ensuring that
I leave Real One displayed. (I'm not sure I can face dealing with Palm
support after all I've read about it!)

Dave.

Ooops, looks like I misinformed you. When RealPlay is in background, ie.
I switch to another application or the Launcher, the palm goes off after
the system power-off delay. Only if the running app is the RP, it keeps
going.

Thanks again for your response - I feel reassured now that I probably don't
have a fault after all...not that it would have kept me awake at night
anyway!  

Dave.
