Why are you running motion against already created video?

To optimize settings, see also the file:// description of netcam_url
https://motion-project.github.io/motion_config.html#netcam_url
I.e. the strategy is to start with very sensitive settings, which produces
true positives (events which should trigger) and false positives (events which
should not trigger). Then optimize the settings such that the positives are
found and the negatives are not found....
I will share the script I created for this as soon as it works :-)

I think, I did not restart motion daemon, i.e. pre_capture 30 could work.

I have the noise_tune option enabled. Can anybody tell how long it takes for
noise_tune to settle?
Looking at the code
cnt->noise = 4 + (cnt->noise + sum) / 2;
and the initialization
cnt->noise = 255;
it seems that every frame makes the difference in the noise level deviation by
a factor of about 2 smaller, i.e. 20 frames pre_capture sounds sufficient for
me.
If anybody more knowledgeable can confirm my analysis, that would be useful :-)
Thanks
Rainer

I agree, that this behavior is wrong
File processing was created to process non-motion videos, for example, from
other DVR. And it makes sense to quit motion as soon as file fully processed
I will create an Enhancement issue for this case
