Media Services Job cannot encode an Append Blob but works fine using a Block Blob

I am using Azure Media Services and I need to encode an Append Blob using Job, the error I get from the Job is this:

While trying to download the input files, the files were not accessible, please check the availability of the source.

I must mention that the Append Blob is created by uploading a video file in chunks. Also, if I try to encode a Block Blob, it works perfectly.

Is Azure Media Services restricting the Job to only work on Block Blob or is there another problem that makes the job fail?

Welp, I just found that media services assets only accept Block Blobs. More info here, this is the only article I found that talks about the type of blob stored in an asset...

An Asset is mapped to a blob container in the Azure Storage account and the files in the Asset are stored as block blobs in that container.
