Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 14.04
Motion 3.2.12
Invoking timelapse in home/motion.conf causes the following cyclic
error. Motion detection continues to work as expected - it is just the
time-lapse function causing the error. Worked as expected until 2 days
ago. Lots of similar errors can be found via searching but no solution:
