can serviio do this?

I bought an ip camera to watch a bird nest. Everything works well and the cam stream can be accessed simply by visiting a url as it has some sort of streaming server built in. The url would be something like http://192.168.0.3/feed.asf?user=admin&pass=1234

the problem is the bandwidth requirements is insane, at least a gigabyte per hour and its only a 0 3 megapixel greyscale stream. Maybe that's mjpeg's fault

. Bandwidth is a problem because the internet is cellphone based and not unlimited usage

can i attach serviio to this url and have serviio transcode on the fly to a more bandwidth efficient codec? And then of course, i can stream off serviio and not use all my allowance. i have plenty of computing power on site , just no good internet. what codec output would you recommend i use?
