And get no notifications in Homekit. If I trigger these via the Homebridge UI, I see the notifications, so it seems that Homebridge is not seeing these activities from the doorbell.

Hello Everyone, First, thanks for this plugin ! I have camera from HIK Vision and it works great. In my home, I have 2 AppleTV and iPhone. To avoid encoding issue, I used the option vcodec: copy The image was very good. Then, when I tried on my AppleTV, it was not working... After searching on internet, I found that the apple tv is more picky with the homekits standards. The Apple TV needs 802 kbps with 1920x1080. If it's not these values, it doesn't work... So, in order to get it work with AppleTV, I need to set the setting value empty to let the plugin encode the video with the right value. …

After upgrading my AppleTV's to tvOS16, the camera's no long work. They do work on my phone with ios16, but I can't get them to work on tvOS16. To test this, I upgraded 2 of my tv's, the camera's stopped working. On the TV that still worked, it was running tvOS15.6 and the camera's worked fine. After upgrading that tv to tvOS16, the cameras stop working and report "15minutes" as the last time it was connected (at the time of my testing) Not sure where I can start debugging but if there's anything I can do to get more info, will be glad to start grabbing/debugging.
