BirdNET-Pi capture, classification, and storage design

BirdNET-Pi continuously consumes audio while the add-on and its recording service are running. However, it does not normally retain one continuous recording. It creates short temporary WAV segments, analyzes them, extracts clips for qualifying detections, and deletes the temporary segments.

Capture, classify, and store loop

1. Capture continuously

The recording service runs persistently and is configured to restart if it exits.
