"QR code Detection Failed" message attempting to scan QR

I received a response from 1Password Support via email after I sent the diagnostics information, which is weird, because I suspect most 1Password.Community members don't have access to my email. It offered a tip about adjusting my screen brightness, which suggests that I need to provide more context.

For background, I have been using OTP Auth for several years. It is good, but limited. I have, until recently, resisted adding TOTP secrets to 1Password because it violated my conception of separate factors. I have since given up this position, since my emergency recovery codes are already in 1Password, so the TOTP authorizer app isn't necessary when performing an attack. If somebody gets into my 1Password vault, the game is over.

To enjoy the significant benefits that come from having TOTP in 1Password, I want to transfer all 72 secrets. I have tried multiple exfiltration methods. One method is to copy the secret in Base32 out of OTP Auth for Mac. Unfortunately, the Catalyst app is buggy as hell and the context menu fails to activate and present the copy option. This is not 1Password's fault, but it does mean that I can't use the least error-prone method.

The other method for extracting secrets is to have OTP Auth for Mac show the QR code as an image. I assumed that 1Password for Mac would be able to tap into the displayed pixels and grab the currently visible image inside OTP Auth for Mac. These are the things I have tried:
* Display QR code in OTP Auth Catalyst app, then click the "Scan QR code from clipboard or screen" button in 1Password. Result: "QR code detection failed"
* Thinking that perhaps the issue was with an OS secure overlay feature, I grabbed the QR code image content and saved it as a file to display in Preview. Also fail.
* I attempted to copy the image data into the clipboard from Preview. I inspected the clipboard with Keyboard Maestro to verify the content existed. Still, no import to 1Password.
* I opened the saved QR code image in Google® Chrome® with the 1Password extension activated, thinking that perhaps the expected customer use case is to import an image from some web page leveraging the extension's ability to inspect the DOM and media. Nope.
* I opened the target website and injected an image tag into the page to load my saved QR code, thinking that perhaps 1Password would perform a document.location.origin match on the record being edited in 1Password, because, let's be honest, that's the sort of over-engineering I would subject my customers to. Still nope.

The application log is splattered with lines like this:

WARN 2023-02-03T08:08:45.492 op_executor:invocation_loop(ThreadId(17)) [1P:op-app/src/app/backend.rs:220] operation blocking event loop invoke Invocation(External(ProcessQrCode(<QrCodeProcessRequest>))) took more than 50 ms (70 ms)


I'm running macOS 13.1 22C65 on a Mac Studio. The 1Password for Mac 8.9.15 (80915001) application has been granted Privacy & Security permission for the following:
* Location Services
* Camera
* Accessibility
* Screen Recording

I will note that running 1Password on iOS and aiming my phone's camera at my ridiculous Apple Studio Display to import what OTP Auth for Mac is showing works flawlessly. It's just not the procedure I was hoping to use.

I'm on the production release channel. I am willing to switch to beta, but haven't yet.
