Low FPS options with greater exposure time

[NyaomiDEV]

It would be useful to try to accumulate as much light as possible in low-light scenarios, where the camera could at least draw some outlines or shadows instead of being pitch-black, even if moving subjects would then be blurry.

Aside from this, streaming at very low FPS could still prove sufficient in an improvised home surveillance system, while also reducing the strain on the Wi-Fi network being used.

I did see a fork that appears to add some of these features: https://github.com/MiaChaos/android-ip-camera-feature-night-enhancement from @MiaChaos

It sounds like it could be a useful setting in the web UI. I'm open to PRs 👍

That fork seems great, however it seems to be already incompatible with the tip of the branch. I think you could just pick those commits and merge them? I don't know if the author of said commits would forbid you to do such a thing, anyway.

@MiaChaos I saw you updating to 0.4.0, any chance you could PR your changes here? Please!

Hi @NyaomiDEV , thanks for the mention!

To be fully transparent, the night enhancement features in my fork were developed using AI-assisted coding. While the functionality works for my specific use case, the implementation is quite experimental and the code structure might not be clean or robust enough for a direct merge into the main branch.

I'm concerned that merging this 'AI slop' might just end up polluting the main project. However, I’m more than happy for any other developers to reference my fork or borrow the logic if they want to implement this feature properly. Best of luck with the development!
