Captured flv files playback ways to fast

Question

My motion server is a tiny Raspberry Pi with a USB camera. I don't know what frame rate it can maintain when recording, but I see the resulting .flv files are playing back too fast. (Would this be different for .mpeg?)

In the FAQ I found the recommendation to use the low_cpu setting, which is no longer supported. - This FAQ section clearly needs an update. - How do I record with correct fps setting? I've seen the discussion on page RemoveLowCpuFeature, but it offers no alternative to the "terrible low_cpu hack."
Paste in your error messages, config settings, terminal window output etc in this text field.

Environment

Motion version: 3.2.12
ffmpeg version: 0.8.13
Libraries: ffmpeg
Server OS: Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 (wheezy), kernel 3.2.27
