can't open .tif files

[mthompson89]

• OS: Windows 10
• PyQt version: PyQt.5

I have NAIP images that are large .tif files ranging from 900KB to 900MB. and are high res. I am trying to use labelImg to label them for a CNN but when I open the file I get this error:

foo: Sorry, can not handle images with 64-bit samples.

This is probably a simple error but I am new to python and image processing so I am not sure what this means. is it the size of the file or the fact that it is a .tif?

Thank you for any help!
