Description

Original issue: https://github.com/microsoft/MixedRealityToolkit-Unity/issues/9719

Describe the bug

When recording a video on HoloLens 2 with Render From PV Camera enabled the iridescence part of the MRTK Standard shader is not recorded correctly. When Render From PV Camera is disabled the recorded video is as expected.

Expected behavior

When recording with Render From PV Camera enabled I would like to see the same outcome in the recorded video as what a user sees in HoloLens.

Screenshots

Here's a demo in Unity and a recording afterwards (with Render From PV Camera enabled)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the recording in Unity 2019.4.20f on HoloLens 2 with Render From PV Camera enabled, focusing on the MRTK Standard shader's iridescence. Compare the recorded video with the user's view and identify the rendering entry point that handles PV-camera output; done means iridescence appears correctly in the recording.
