Research direction

Start by reproducing playback on LibreELEC (Linux ARM) with the current release, then inspect the linked debug log at http://ix.io/1uCY. Compare the master and msl2 branches and verify whether removing the preferences and cdm directories changes the result. Done means the video starts playing without the loading icon stopping indefinitely.
