Describe the Issue I try to connect my Camera with Harvester GUI and I get an Error

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Launch Harvester gui
2. Click on open CTI File and load the CTI file given by Spinnaker sdk
3. Camera correctly shows up
4. Click on connect camera
5. Error shows up in terminal

Sample Code I can show a piece of code that demonstrates the reported phenomenon:

• [ ] Yes
• [X] No

Expected Behavior Can't connect

Configuration

Please note that I ported the Harvester GUI over to PyQt6 and python 3.10. However the error occurred in the Harvesters library

• OS: [Windows 11]
• Python: [3.10]
• Harvester: [1.4.2]
• GenTL Producer: [Spinakker SDK]
• Camera: []

Reproducibility

This phenomenon can be stably reproduced:

• [x] Yes, it happens every time
• [ ] No.

** Additional Information

The Camera does work with my own Python libraries that use the official Spinnaker python libraries

• [X] I've read the Harvester FAQ page.

edit: Fixed a typo and added what goes wrong

I'm also seeing this on Harvesters 1.4.2, Python 3.10, with Ubuntu 22.04 and a Blackfly S using Spinnaker

I am also experiencing this issue. Harvesters 1.4.2 Python 3.7.16 Win 10 Point Grey (acquired by FLIR) Grasshopper3 GS3-U3-50S5M Spinnaker SDK v4 Full

Edit: After some quick testing, the issue does not seem to be present when switching to... Python 3.8.18 Harvesters 1.4.0
