Problem

When the app starts recording the following error message is displayed:

The specified device interface or feature level is not supported on this system.

If your device supports multiple display processors, run the application on the integrated GPU instead of on the discrete GPU.

This issue occurs because the app does not support being run against the discrete GPU on a Microsoft Hybrid system.
