movie_max_time 60 means that new movie file will be created for an
event that lasts longer than 60 seconds. You should see new file
created every 60 seconds. Not necessarily resulted movies will all be
60 seconds long, as if there was no motion gap during the event -
frames are not recorded
Maybe you could share a log file with -d 9 that contains at least two
events each not less than 60 sec?
