The Eiger-type detectors change bit depth based on acquire time. This means that the frame parameters change again after priming, resulting in a failed HDF5 file write.

Suggest staging with min( plugin.parent.cam.acquire_time, 1) and min( plugin.parent.cam.acquire_period, 1) so that the bit depth matches the real acquisition parameters. Times >1s will always result in 32-bit depth for all known Eiger detectors so that is an acceptable upper bound.

(plugin.parent.cam.acquire_time, 1),
(plugin.parent.cam.acquire_period, 1),
