To ensure continuous operation of the real-time avatar for more than 10 minutes, you can enable auto-reconnect. For how to set up auto-reconnect, refer to this [sample code](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/cognitive-services-speech-sdk/blob/master/samples/js/browser/avatar/README.md) (search "auto reconnect").
