CoreImage filters spam the log on El-Capitan?

Hello friends. Please pardon this short reprise, but I really need help - maybe someone can shed some light on my problem.

I’m capturing video using AVFoundation APIs for preview only (OS-X app) following an old sample-code from Apple (AVRecorder).  My view hierarchy is simple. An NSView (WantsLayer=YES) with a AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer as sublayer. This worked for several years now.

Recently I added modest CoreImage CIFilter (CISharpenLuminance) to the video preview like so:

1. I call setLayerUsesCoreImageFilters:YES on the NSView hosting the video capture.
2. I programmatically create and  apply the filter to the  AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer.

From that moment on - I see strange warnings in the console: "Fallingback to pbuffer. FBO status is 36054” for every captured video frame (30 a sec…).

In other mailing list, someone claims the problem only happens with OS-X.11, and only with YUV pixel formats. He found the problem in another Apple sample code -AVGreenScreenPlayer.

Unfortunately the video devices I use only provide YUV pixel formats, and my client Macs only run OS-X 10.11.
Can someone tell me what is the source of this error line? what is FBO, and what has fallen-back? where is a documentation of the error, and is there a workaround the problem?

Any hint will be greatly appreciated. Here’s my code with the new additions marked with // <— new code


    // Get our videoView and its CALayer, to draw video and other stuff on it.
   CALayer *videoViewLayer = [[delegate videoView] layer];	// here the delegate is an NSWindowController.
   NSRect bounds = [videoViewLayer bounds];
   [[delegate videoView] setLayerUsesCoreImageFilters:YES];	                                                   // <— new code

   // Create and Add videoCapture layer to our videoView.
   AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer *videoPreviewLayer = [[AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer alloc] initWithSession:[self session]];
   [videoPreviewLayer setBackgroundColor:CGColorGetConstantColor(kCGColorClear)];
   [videoPreviewLayer setVideoGravity:AVLayerVideoGravityResize];
   [videoPreviewLayer setFrame:bounds];
   [videoPreviewLayer setAutoresizingMask:kCALayerWidthSizable | kCALayerHeightSizable];

   CIFilter *sharpenLuminance = [CIFilter filterWithName:@"CISharpenLuminance"];	// <— new code
   [sharpenLuminance setValue:@0.5 forKey:kCIInputSharpnessKey];	                // <—new code
   [videoPreviewLayer setFilters:@[sharpenLuminance]];	                                // <— new code

   [videoViewLayer addSublayer:videoPreviewLayer];
