I have connected a NTSC video camera on /dev/video0. This camera works only in NTSC mode (norm 1).
When there is a simple moviment in front of camera, motion goes crash.

Hello,

I recently took over maintenance for the package motion in Debian.

This bug is quite old and related to old version of motion. Since it
hasn't got any update since 2010, I have the sensation it can be closed.

I'll wait a little bit for a feedback before closing it.
