If you're on Linux, you can easily build your own patched ffmpeg. 

Although I'm using SRT now, in the event you or someone else is stuck with HLS, 
I went ahead and ported this patch to the current ffmpeg 5.1.2 source. It's 
attached to this email, along with a build script for ffmpeg. It compiles, and 
looks like it will work, but I haven't tested it; so give it a try and see if 
it helps. 

First download ffmpeg 5.1.2 from: 
https://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-5.1.2.tar.bz2 

Then put it in a directory somewhere with the script and patch file. By default 
the script builds and installs ffmpeg and the docs in the current directory, 
under ./ffmpeg and ./ffmpeg-doc. You can easily edit the script to replace the 
system ffmpeg, if you want; then just run the script with 'sudo'.

You'll undoubtedly have to install a number of different -dev packages of 
various needed libraries to complete the build, so just run the script, watch 
for 'configure' to fail with missing packages, then find and install the -dev 
version of what it's looking for. 

If you need to cross-build ffmpeg for a different CPU, the script can do that 
also; set environment variable TARGET="aarch64" or whatever.

I do recommend to switching to SRT if you can, though, as it's much better than 
HLS in my experience.
