Causes VLC to record upside down and causes audio to drop out sporadically

[bakertaylor28]

When using this to screen-record with VLC using MP4 format on windows 10, this causes the screen to record upside down for some unapparent reason and causes the audio to drop in and out.

I tried with vlc playing a "live stream" and it worked OK?

saving to file fails, viewing in VLC succeeds?

As stated, VLC will write to file, but the file itself rendered upside down and the audio was unstable going in and out. I got with Microsoft on this, and they were able to trace it to the Windows 10 DEP (Data Execution Prevention) modules. Turning off DEP solved the problem, but represents a security issue in the Windows 10 environment. This likely means the code needs to be rewritten to conform to Windows 10 DEP API specifications such that it doesn't execute in RAM, or else update the Readme to indicate the package may not be compatible with Windows 10 depending upon OS Config.
