#Webcam and Switching from BTT-CB1 to RPI4B Questions

a couple and sort of technical?? questions for anyone with more knowledge on the subject.

  1. I'm trying to setup a webcam for my printer I'm currently running it with a BTT-CB1, I got it setup and running with ustreamer but can only achieve 12fps on idle at 640x480. I'm trying to get higher more consistent FPS and am not sure if my current setup can achieve that. I've tried configuring crowsnest with camera-streamer but I dont think it's compatible with the BTT-CB1. Is it possible to even run camera-streamer (webrtc) on the BTT-CB1?

  2. is there any other way to increase / optimize my fps on the BTT-CB1?

  3. I have an extra raspberry pi 4B+ 8gb with Mainsail already installed that I used to run my old Ender 3 on that I could configure camera-streamer on and possibly get higher res and fps on the webcam. would it be possible to switch out my BTT-CB1 for the RPI4B+ and just port over my config files from the BTT-CB1 to the RPI4B+. (I'm running stealthburner with EBB2209 + RP2040 Canbus Boards) not sure if I switch to the RPI if I need to reinstall anything to get everything working.

wanted to ask the experts before I did anything drastic.
