Under certain circumstances, it may be desiderable to have the motion detection
in paused state when starting motion. e.g.: if motion does real suveillance and
triggers serious actions when motion is detected, it is a good idea to make
sure,
that motion detection is activated explicitely from the supervising system.
A new configuration parameter motion_detection (Default: on) would permit to
specify,
if motion detection should be active or paused when starting up.
