That's right. I also use camerify (and this what is different
to the prior incarnation of this server which used an older
version). Humm.
I think I will just use cron to restart motion once in a while for now
until I can figure out a solution, or someone else has a workaround/fix

I was looking at your motion.conf and comparing it to mine. We both
call scripts on motion movie end so I disabled that option and it has
made no difference.

(apologies if a blank reply came through, I hit the send button by mistake)
The GitHub issue tracker had a bug for this reported a few years back. It was
identified that it only occurred when using the libcamerify wrapper. See:
https://github.com/Motion-Project/motion/issues/1522#issuecomment-1099658250
I've never used the wrapper, so can't speak further on whether Motion could do
something different to help prevent this or if it's directly due to
libcamerify. Would seem the best solution for now is the scheduled restart of
Motion.
