Configure location, audio source, and other settings in the BirdNET-PiPy UI after the container starts.
Options can be configured through three ways:
- Add-on options
```yaml

RECORDING_MODE: rtsp # pulseaudio | http_stream | rtsp
RTSP_URL: "" # Required if RECORDING_MODE is rtsp
data_location: /config/data # Persistent data location for BirdNET-PiPy
```
After starting, open the add-on web UI. Use the BirdNET-PiPy settings page to configure location, audio source, and other options.
- Config.yaml
Additional variables can be configured using the config.yaml file found in `/config/birdnet-pipy/config.yaml` using the Filebrowser add-on.

Additional environment variables can be configured there.
