Hi everyone! I've recently had enough of Google's terrible nest integration with HASS and got myself a Reolink POE Doorbell. Im in the process of setting it up through Frigate. I've been slowly ChatGPT'ing along and have the doorbell showing both in frigate and hass including two way talk! But there's one thing im stuck on. The recorded video size is enormous. About every 10-15 seconds it grows 0.01gb. Is there any way to compress it before sending it off?

go2rtc config:

also the Reolink extension camera can play on my Google Nest, but trying to play the Frigate stream results in a black screen. I can also see the Reolink extension is switching over to WebRTC and the Frigate cam is not, is there an option to enable or some other way to make this functional?

Change the max bitrate on the camera if you want to lower the file size
