Looking for some advise on a camera solution

I'm hoping this community can point me in a direction for a self hosted camera solution I have a couple of Amcrest IP2m-841w-v3 cameras (to start) that I am trying to keep off of the internet ,but achieve the following feature sets:

  • Real-time View - preferably with an option to view as individuals or multiple at once
  • Audio - Ability to hear audio from the camera is a must 2 way audio is a nice to have
  • Pan and Tilt control
  • Motion / Audio alerts - preferred
  • Ability to record - preferred
  • Ability to reverse proxy , preferably with MFA (Can be provided by external IDP)
  • Home Assistant integration - preferred
  • Mobile friendly interface - mobile app preferred

So far I've tried

  • ZoneMinder: Checks the box on just about everything except no real time audio
  • Scrypted: Looks like it should check most if not all of the boxes but I can't seem to get Pan / Tilt, or two way audio working (audio from the camera is working) - I've tried adding as both an ONVIF and Amcrest camera
  • Frigate: from what I am reading Pan and Tilt are not supported yet and I haven't been able to get audio working
  • go2rtc: doesn't seem to to support pan and tilt

Am I missing an option that may be a good fit? Or does anyone have any experience that would help close the gaps that I am seeing with any of these options?

Thanks in advance for any guidance!
