Amcrest Control Type not available

I have added my Amcrest ASH21-B (see https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08644FKP1 here) but cannot control it. When I load the Control settings, I cannot select Control Type (there is no Amcrest option, like there's supposed to be). I run the v1.34.22 dlandon docker version. Any ideas how I can get this Control Type added?

The control scripts that show up in the control types list are located in (on my Ubuntu 16.04 server) the following directory:
/usr/share/perl5/ZoneMinder/Control/

Placing the scripts there, restarting ZM, on my install will cause the script to show up in the list to select from.

Where these scripts are located may be in a config setting somewhere, I dont know.

HTH...
