These parameters are simple key-value pairs stored in a list. It is recommended that these parameters
are changed through the web interface settings page. However, they can also be modified directly. Shutdown
your server first, modify, then start it for changes to take effect.
## Java Parameters
The `libresonic.home` parameter is a Java System Property that is not modifiable through the web interface.
It must be configured via Java startup parameters. See below for steps to do this.
