Streaming Tapo camera on Google Nest Hub stops after 5 minutes for energy saving. How can I stream continiously or at least some hours

Let me know if you have the answer.  I'll be returning my Google Nest cameras and the Google 4K Streamer I just bought.  I thought that 5 mins would be resolved with the new Streamer but no.

Hi STokyo,
 

I am sorry to hear that you are returning Google Nest cameras and the Google 4K Streamer that you just bought to stream your cameras. It is my pleasure to assist you with this inconvenience.

To provide you with better assistance, I would appreciate it if you answered the following questions:

Are you getting any error messages when you try to stream your cameras?

Are you using wired or battery-powered Google Nest cameras?

Thanks for your attention. I will be looking forward to your kind response.

Yes this is the exact reason im returning my google nest hub and just getting some 40$ screen that I will stream the camera feed URL to. Beyond imaginable that google saw fit to ship a product like this, it defeats the entire purpose!
