You have a 20-GB file named file1, avi that is stored on a local drive.

This is because the Azure Video Indexer website allows you to upload videos from a URL or from your file system, but there are some limitations and considerations for each option1.

If you upload from your file system, the size of the file is limited to 2 GB, which is less than the size of file1.avi (20 GB). Therefore, this option is not feasible.

If you upload from a URL, the size of the file is limited to 30 GB, which is enough for file1.avi. However, the URL must be publicly accessible and valid, and the file must be accessible. You cannot use URLs from streaming services such as YouTube1. Therefore, options A and B are not valid.

The best option is to upload file1.avi to a cloud storage service such as Microsoft OneDrive, and then generate a shareable link for the file. You can then paste the link in the Azure Video Indexer website and upload the video from the URL. This way, you can avoid the file size limitation and ensure that the file is accessible and valid2.
