[High] Cannot play artwork “Unsupervised – Data Universe – MoMA #1756”: loading forever on app and green screen on FF1

[nunguyen-3101]

🌍 Overview – Why does this matter?

The artwork “Unsupervised – Data Universe – MoMA #1756” cannot be played successfully. On the mobile app, playback stays in an infinite loading state, while on FF1 the casting result is a green background instead of the artwork. This blocks core functionality (play & cast) for a specific artwork and creates a broken end-to-end experience.
