AttributeError: module 'numpy' has no attribute 'float' error from skvideo dependency

[tleyden]

I tried running StrayVisualizer and got the following error:

python stray_visualize.py stray_scanner_c9c16b88c7

AttributeError: module 'numpy' has no attribute 'float'.
`np.float` was a deprecated alias for the builtin `float`. To avoid this error in existing code, use `float` by itself. Doing this will not modify any behavior and is safe. If you specifically wanted the numpy scalar type, use `np.float64` here.
The aliases was originally deprecated in NumPy 1.20; for more details and guidance see the original release note at:
    https://numpy.org/devdocs/release/1.20.0-notes.html#deprecations. Did you mean: 'cfloat'?

It looks like it's caused by scikit-video/scikit-video#154, and the workaround mentioned here worked for me:

In stray_visualize.py, replace import skvideo.io with:

import numpy
numpy.float = numpy.float64
numpy.int = numpy.int_
import skvideo.io
