Performance Unifi Protect integration in HA vs Homebridge

[rhvs]

Feedback

After many attempts to get the new integration running fast -near- real time, I switched back to the spare Pi4 and use the main Unifi Protect plugin on Homebridge (https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect). I still wonder if it's possible to have the same performance within HA, or, use the HB version for a better HA integration?

Hey there @briis, @angellusmortis, @bdraco, mind taking a look at this feedback as it has been labeled with an integration (unifiprotect) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks! _{^{(message by CodeOwnersMention)}}

Hi there @rhvs 👋

Thank you for reaching out. It seems like you have a question, however, you have submitted documentation feedback instead.

Also, this is outside of the scope of the UniFi Protect integration.

You will want to post this under the stream integration. @allenporter and @uvjustin have been doing a lot to get the latency down lower, but you need to set up HTTP/2 as documented in the UniFi Protect docs to make full use of LL-HLS from the stream integration. It will commonly fallback to HLS (~15 second delay) without it.

OK - I'll repost somewhere else 👍 Just wanted to share the HB integration is working flawless (no delay (not even 1 s), iCloud+ integration and more), which hopefully can save someone lots of time. Thanks for the quick replies!
