Using "Auto" option of MediaCaptureMemoryPreference returns "null" frame (SoftwareBitmap)

Hi,

I am trying to build an app that captures the video frames from the Locatable camera of the HoloLens.

I have referred to the following article :
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/audio-video-camera/process-media-frames-with-mediaframereader
and this:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.media.capture.mediacaptureinitializationsettings.MemoryPreference

As suggested, I am getting hold of the SoftwareBitmap, when in "Auto" mode, via the IDirect3DSurface -
var bitmap = SoftwareBitmap.CreateCopyFromSurfaceAsync(frame.VideoMediaFrame.Direct3DSurface)

The bitmap always evaluates to null on HoloLens. While it works well on other UWP based devices.

Can someone kindly help how to address this issue?

Cheers,
Raghu
