  --host HOST,                   [127.0.0.1] Hostname/ip-adress for the server
  --port PORT,                   [8080   ] Port number for the server
  --convert,                     [false  ] Convert audio to WAV, requires ffmpeg on the server

Warning

Do not run the server example with administrative privileges and ensure it's operated in a sandbox environment, especially since it involves risky operations like accepting user file uploads and using ffmpeg for format conversions. Always validate and sanitize inputs to guard against potential security threats.
