Randomly turns off in live view

Is it normal that my K-50 turns off after while of using in Live View? Like after a minute?

Could it be the Auto Power Off setting?

Either the auto-off setting, or an old battery that's no longer able to consistently deliver the power needed.

That's it I thought it did not work in LV. Thanks.
