When using QSV, Ersatztv seems to run well for exactly three minutes, then just stops. The player then gets a 404 on the m3u8 file and stops playing. Swapping to VAAPI fixes that, but creates more CPU load too so I'm trying to avoid that. Seems like it must be close to working since it runs just fine for a bit.

Any ideas?
