Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias throughout the tutorial. Windows-specific instructions, tools, and examples are presented exclusively or before any mention of Linux/macOS alternatives. The compute pool is configured with a Windows Server image only, and the ffmpeg application package referenced is the Windows build. The command line for running ffmpeg uses Windows-specific syntax (cmd /c and .exe), with no mention of how to adapt for Linux or macOS environments. There are no examples or guidance for using Linux VM images, Linux ffmpeg builds, or Bash command lines.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and code samples for configuring Batch pools with Linux VM images (e.g., Ubuntu).
- Provide guidance on uploading and referencing Linux/macOS builds of ffmpeg as application packages.
- Include sample command lines for running ffmpeg on Linux (e.g., using Bash syntax and ffmpeg binary without .exe).
- Clarify how to adapt the .NET sample code and Batch task configuration for non-Windows environments.
- Present cross-platform examples side-by-side or indicate platform-specific steps clearly.
- Mention Linux/macOS prerequisites and tooling (e.g., Visual Studio Code, dotnet CLI on Linux).
