Regarding your error in the title:
"AVCaptureDeviceTypeExternal is deprecated for Continuity Cameras"

You would need to give more information about which operating system you are running under.

You may find that updating to the latest Cypress version 13.3.0 may solve this issue, as some other gpu-related issues have been resolved by updating. It may also just be a warning which can be ignored after you have updated your Chrome browser.
