If your camera supports native H.264 streams, Home Assistant can avoid converting the video stream, which is an expensive operation. To enable native H.264 streaming when configured via YAML, change the `video_codec` to `copy`. To allow native H.264 streaming when via the UI, go to **Configuration** >> **Integrations** in the UI, click **Options** for your HomeKit Bridge, and check the box for your camera on the `Cameras that support native H.264 streams` screen.

#### One video stream limit per camera

#### Multiple camera streams

|

Currently, cameras are limited to one video stream. Multiple streams are not possible at this time. One workaround is to create a second `HomeKit Bridge` to generate a copy of the camera accessory.
|
||||
Multiple streams can be configured with the `stream_count` configuration option. If you alter the number of streams, you must [reset the accessory](#resetting-accessories).
