How do I get yolov8 to activate in blueiris

BlueIris

Inside of blueiris, I can view video and 'test with AI' where it puts a box around people, cars, etc and labels them. For some reason I am unable to get this feedback in BI when using Object Detection (YOLOv8) 1.4.2.

I've tested a bunch of object detection versions and I find YOLOv8 the best but I have no way to tell if it's actually running correctly.

When I run Object Detection (YOLOv5 .NET) 1.10.1 I am able to review footage 'testing with AI' and the box comes up around whatever is detected.

Is there a way to fix YOLOv8?

This is from the logs:
13:25:54:Response rec'd from Object Detection (YOLOv8) command 'detect' (...e47814)
13:25:54:Object Detection (YOLOv8): Unable to create YOLO detector for model yolov8m

What I have tried:

googling, reinstalling, testing yolov5 vs v8. Currently reading through documentation.
