BUG: Netcam Grey Image

After network problems motion does not continue to update video with new images. Only gray video is generated. This only happens for cameras that do not provide MJPEG stream.

There is a verbose log capture (1MB, very compressed) here:
http://200.108.192.48/debug/debug.bz2

Configuration file is here:
http://200.108.192.48/debug/motion.conf

The camera was powered down the 2009-03-06 and went back 2009-03-08

Line 1324667 of the debug file shows the last HTTP GET before camera shutdown.
After that, motion seems to loop in a flawed state, and then it was restarted (line 2063966)

Tell me if you need more info.

Thanks

I've built the motion Version trunk-r442 (and updated my config), the same problem appears.

Command line: /usr/local/bin/motion -n -d9 -c ctrl/motion.conf

Logfile: http://200.108.192.48/debug/logfile.gz

Config files: http://200.108.192.48/debug/motion.conf
and here: http://200.108.192.48/debug/c00024.motion.conf

Don't think twice on asking for more information. Thanks.
