Hello, I am encountering some issues when trying to run motionplus. I am not able to open the webserver and the recorded video appears to be really laggy. Here are some errors I am greeted with in the logs:

For some cotext of my setup, I am using a raspberry pi zero 2 w with debian Bookworm (32 bit) os installed with a raspberry pi camera module v2. I recently installed motionplus using these commands:
To download the .deb file
wget https://github.com/Motion-Project/motionplus/releases/download/<version>/motionplus-<version>-armhf.deb
To install the .deb package
sudo dpkg -i motionplus-<version>-armhf.deb
sudo apt --fix-broken install # To resolve any dependencies
I ran motionplus with
sudo motionplus
and those messages popped up in the logsHere is my config file I accessed by running
sudo nano /etc/motionplus/motionplus.conf
:; This config file was generated by motionplus 0.2.1
; Documentation: /usr/share/doc/motionplus/motionplus_guide.html
;
; This file contains only the basic configuration options to get a
; system working. There are many more options available. Please
; consult the documentation for the complete list of all options.

I'm assuming I need to fix something in the main config files and the camera config files but I am not quite sure what. I would appreciate any help.
