+Before starting, configure the application by creating a `config.json` file:
+
+1. Copy the example configuration:
+    ```sh
+    cp config.example.json config.json
+    ```
+2. Edit `config.json` to customize your settings:
+    - **directories.watch_dir**: Where OBS saves replay buffers (e.g., `E:\OBS`)
+    - **directories.moveto_dir**: Where processed replays are stored (default: `./replays`)
+    - **server.port**: HTTP server port for serving video files (default: `8000`)
+    - **server.websocket_port**: WebSocket port for Electron communication (default: `8001`)
+    - **replay.length_seconds**: Duration of replays in seconds (default: `20`)
+    - **replay.default_location**: Overlay position (`center`, `top_left`, `bottom_left`, `top_right`)
+    - **replay.default_size**: Overlay size from 1 (smallest) to 10 (largest)
+    - **voice_recognition.enabled**: Enable/disable voice commands (default: `false`)
+    - **hotkey.enabled**: Enable/disable hotkey (default: `true`)
+    - **hotkey.key**: Hotkey to trigger replays (default: `pagedown`)
+    - **commands**: Customize voice command phrases for activation, stop, replay last, and clear

 ## Other commands
-- **Activation:** Say "instant replay" to save the last X seconds.
-- **Stop:** Say "stop replay" to hide the replay overlay.
-- **Replay Last:** Say "replay last" to show the most recent replay.
-- **Clear Replays:** Say "clear replays" to delete all saved clips.
+- **Hotkey Toggle:** Press your configured hotkey (default: Page Down) to trigger or stop replays
