I did some tests I do not find I would like to do so that the encoder chooses only HD for recording
I did a 40 minute live video the video was 2.9 G
is there a possibility to compress the video a little more but to keep a good resolution?
The compress and the resolution depend on your FFMPEG command. you can customize it in your encoder -> configuration tab.
the best results for you I am not sure, maybe you can make some tests with different configurations.
This is tested before by someone. Has also good graphics as it is a trade of between speed of encoding and the compression it can do. And of course the resolution.
You can find the results of that here
x264 is more about compression of the file The more time you give to ffmpeg the smaller it will be. If you use x265 it is more about quality. The more time you give to the ffmpeg the better quality you will get but not a smaller file size. Good luck with the finding your optimal settings.
The thing I would recommend you is switching from mp4 to webm if your concern is the quality/disk space used . libvpx-vp9 is the best right now and is compatible with HTML5 ( it is very very slow , but if you have intel quicksync , than you are fine !
