Additional context

When GC triggered, the frames update for about 0.5 sec, then it freezes again.

I get this problem with WinUI too, I've even tried the latest vNext version, and it still only captures for less than a couple seconds. It does occasionally update... maybe one frame every few minutes.

The UWP version works as expected.

This age-old WinUI 3 issue seems to remain unfixed and there are various related issues floating around: https://github.com/microsoft/WindowsAppSDK/issues/2774 https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/issues/4710 This needs to be raised to the WinUI 3 team.

That's not a good news. I suspect this issue is related to memory reclamation. In my project, after calling gc.collect() every sec, the camera preview works perfectly. However, it raised serious performance problem.
