Is there a way to use the copy codec with ffmpeg to avoid encoding for live view? I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4 and would like to avoid taxing its CPU with encoding an otherwise perfectly fine h264 stream. I've tried using different variations of vcodec=copy in the monitors' options field to no avail.

Did you try Monitor->Storage->Video Writer->Camera Pass Through?
