Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. The tutorial exclusively uses Windows VM images for the compute pool, references only the Windows build of ffmpeg, and provides command-line examples using Windows syntax (cmd /c, .exe). There are no Linux VM pool configuration examples, nor any Linux shell command lines for running ffmpeg. The documentation does not mention how to adapt the workflow for Linux compute nodes, nor does it provide parity for Linux users in terms of setup or execution.
Recommendations
  • Add examples and instructions for creating a Batch pool with a Linux VM image (e.g., Ubuntu).
  • Provide guidance on downloading and packaging the Linux build of ffmpeg.
  • Include sample command lines for running ffmpeg on Linux (e.g., bash syntax, ./ffmpeg).
  • Clarify how to set up ApplicationPackageReference for Linux nodes.
  • Mention differences in environment variables and file paths between Windows and Linux nodes.
  • Ensure that all steps (pool creation, job/task creation, command lines) have Linux equivalents presented alongside Windows instructions.
