I've been installed the standard motion 3.2.12 package on debian 7.5.
I would like to get snapshot ONLY when motion is detected, but it still saves a picture every second without any activity in front of the camera.
I'm using a TENVIS JPT3815W IP camera
motion.conf
here is my configuration file
setup_mode off
target_dir /media/videos/log/webcam
netcam_url http://webcam/snapshot.cgi
netcam_tolerant_check on
netcam_userpass admin:alpha1237
# Output frames at 1 fps when no motion is detected and increase to the
# rate given by webcam_maxrate when motion is detected (default: off)
webcam_motion off
output_all off
# detection settings 1-255 default 32
noise_level 50
# Maximum framerate for
webcam streams (default: 1)
webcam_maxrate 25

Issue
when I start motion images are stored in /media/videos/log/webcam nearly every second. I hjust want to get images when a motion is detected and the according video clip
Any idea where the configuration fails ?
