Hi, I am having what I believe is the same issue as reported in this bugreport.
libjpeg segfaults, which leads to motion stopping. At the same time a completely grey (but date & time-stamped) frame is generated, this frame has no jpeg encoding errors. Note that some of the packages listed below are from the wheezy-backports archive. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: linux-image-3.16-0.bpo.2-amd64 Alternative tested kernel: 3.17.1 vanilla (make oldconfig) LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 -- Hardware Information: Intel Core i3 8GB RAM Gigabyte H77-D3H motherboard (H77 express chipset) Note: I ran memtest86 last night to check the RAM, no errors were indicated. -- Input device at /dev/video0 Bus 001 Device 003: ID 045e:076d Microsoft Corp.
