Using script console I explored the PMIIPCamViewer object:
from com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application.components import PMIIPCamViewer
ip = PMIIPCamViewer()
dir(ip)
The hint about the parser attribute in the serialized fields documentation is misleading.
from com.inductiveautomation.factorypmi.application.components import FrameProducer
throws an exception:
ImportError: cannot import name FrameProducer
As Paul indicated there is no FrameProducer / parser attribute in the object.

I am testing a bandage polled idea using runScript() on a bindable property (eg. visible) with a custom method:
def setTrue(self)
try:
self.nextFrame()
# system.gui.messageBox("success","nextFrame")
except:
self.reconnect()
system.gui.messageBox("failure","reconnect")
return True
Rationale is to periodically issue the PMIIPCamViewer object's nextFrame() method and -- if it fails -- try the reconnect() method.
For what it is worth, this is not a new issue, just unsolved:
