+In order to add audio from a USB microfone, install GStreamer and alsa-utils:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install -y gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-rtsp gstreamer1.0-alsa alsa-utils
+```
+
+list available audio cards with:

+Find the audio card of the microfone and take note of its name, for instance `default:CARD=U0x46d0x809`. Then use GStreamer inside `runOnReady` to read the video stream, add audio and publish the improved stream to another path:
+
+```yml
