PIX DirectX 11调试像素错误

Question

I recently updated my DirectX 11 (C++) application for dual-monitor, dual-window support. Ever since then, when I try to debug any pixel in the PIX debugger, I get the following error:

A call that previously succeeded failed during playback:

EID: 1375 
Call: IDXGIFactory::CreateSwapChain() 
HRESULT: DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL

I am no longer using D3D11CreateDeviceAndSwapChain, but instead using D3D11CreateDevice and then CreateSwapChain to create separate swap chains for each of two windows (one per monitor). I used the SDK sample MultiMon10 as a reference when making my changes, however I can still debug pixels without error when running the MultiMon10 sample project through PIX. So it can't just be a matter of "CreateSwapChain" not being PIX-friendly.

Any ideas what could be causing this error? Debugging pixels and stepping through shaders has helped me out a lot in the past and I'd hate to lose that capability.

Seems like I am hitting the same problem. It also happens with Visual Studio 2012 Graphics Debug. Must be something with CreateSwapChain in DX Debug mode.

I've been using Intel's GPA tool instead to workaround this issue. I find it very useful. It can be used to debug on the same machine or through a client/server model.
