Summary
The tutorial exhibits a notable Windows bias: it exclusively references Windows tools and patterns, such as using Windows Server VM images, Windows-specific ffmpeg builds, and Windows command-line syntax (cmd /c). There are no examples or instructions for running on Linux or macOS compute nodes, nor is there guidance for using Linux-compatible ffmpeg packages or shell syntax. The sample code and pool configuration are hardcoded for Windows environments, making it difficult for Linux users to follow or adapt the tutorial.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and code samples for creating Linux-based pools (e.g., Ubuntu VM images) in Azure Batch.
- Provide Linux/macOS-compatible ffmpeg download links and usage examples.
- Show alternative command-line syntax for Linux (e.g., bash/sh) and update task creation code to support both platforms.
- Clarify in the prerequisites and throughout the tutorial that both Windows and Linux are supported, and highlight any differences.
- Include sample pool and job configurations for Linux nodes, and explain how to select the appropriate node agent SKU and image reference.
- Ensure that resource file paths and output file handling are cross-platform compatible.
