The best settings are whatever you want to choose. HBUP fully supports HEVC and H.264 (HEVC = Enhanced Encoding in Protect parlance). If you're asking my recommendations:
TL;DR: don't enable enhanced encoding unless you have a need to - it's meaningless to HBUP/HomeKit. Enable the bitrate-related feature options (under the video section) for both low and high-latency streams. The defaults (2000/1000kbps) provide a good quality with appropriate speed/size/bandwidth tradeoffs, but play with them if you'd like.
Hope this helps!

Describe the problem
Hi,
I've been wondering what's the best/correct settings in the new protect for working with HomeKit? There's new option Enhanced and it seems to work although there's a blank page for half a second in homekit when you enter the stream. Not much changed.
Does it even matter?
