Streaming destinations include: -* HomeKit -* Google Home -* Alexa -* Chromecast -* Web - -# Settings - -* h264 video. Do **NOT** use H.264+, "Super" H.264, H.264B, or any other fancy variant. **TURN IT OFF**. Sometimes this unsupported variant setting is called "Smart Code(c)" and it should be set to "Close" or "Off". -* Configure all available camera substreams. Not all cameras may have a third stream. - * 1080p Cameras: - * 1920x1080, 2 Mbit variable bitrate (local streaming) - * 1280x720, 1 Mbit, variable bitrate (remote/low streaming) - * 640x480p, 500 Kbit variable bitrate (low streaming, if a third stream is available) - * 2K Cameras: - * 2560x1440, 3.5 Mbit variable bitrate (local streaming) - * 1280x720, 1 Mbit, variable bitrate (remote/low streaming) - * 640x480p, 500 Kbit variable bitrate (low streaming, if a third stream is available) - * 4K Cameras: - * 3840x2160, 8 Mbit, variable bitrate (local streaming) - * 1280x720, 1 Mbit, variable bitrate (remote/low streaming) - * 640x480p, 500 Kbit variable bitrate (low streaming, if a third stream is available) -* 4 second keyframe interval - * `Keyframe Interval` is the number of seconds between keyframes. `Frame Interval` is the number frames between keyframes. - * Cameras are typically configured in `Frame Interval` rather than `Keyframe Interval`. The formula for `Frame Interval` value is: `Frame Interval = 4 * FPS`. So if `FPS` is `30` as specified, `Frame Interval` should be set to `120`. -* Audio codecs, in order of preference: - * Opus (used for live streaming to HomeKit or web) - * PCM-ulaw/G711u (raw format suitable for web)
