Describe the bug: Occasionally when checking the Web UI, the camera information will be displayed as "Placeholder Camera, even though the camera is plugged in. Usually a restart of Photonvision solves this.

Setup: Hardware: Orange Pi 5 Network config: Network switch Photonvision version: 2024.2.9 Browser: Chrome, unsure of version Camera: Arducam USB OV9281

To Reproduce:

  1. Have camera plugged in
  2. Boot up web UI
  3. observe placeholder camera
  4. Restart Photonvision from web UI
  5. Issue is solved

Hello, are you sure that the backend is connected? This will either happen when the frontend hasn't connected to the backend service or the backend hasn't published camera information (usually due to an issue setting up that camera).
