Summary
The documentation shows evidence of Windows bias, particularly in the Java example where the ffmpeg binary is referenced as 'ffmpeg.exe', which is Windows-specific. The Java code example does not mention or provide guidance for Linux usage, such as using the Linux binary or setting executable permissions. Additionally, the note for the Python example mentions 'chmod' for Linux but does not provide a corresponding Windows note (e.g., for .exe files or permissions), suggesting a default assumption of Windows. The documentation also references PowerShell as an upload option before CLI, and the Java example's instructions and paths are Windows-centric, with Linux alternatives missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions for Java, including usage of the Linux ffmpeg binary and setting executable permissions.
  • Avoid using Windows-only file extensions (e.g., '.exe') in cross-platform examples; show both Windows and Linux variants.
  • When mentioning upload tools, list Azure CLI and PowerShell together or prioritize CLI for parity.
  • Add notes or code snippets for Windows users where Linux-specific instructions (e.g., chmod) are given, and vice versa.
  • Explicitly state platform differences in environment variables, file paths, and permissions where relevant.
