It's likely that your server can't transcode whatever it's trying to deliver to the roku.
Anything working on that server is likely working as direct play only. We can try tweaking your clients to be more compatable with whatever content you are playing to avoid transcodes as much as possible.
Investigate your roku settings and make sure direct play for mpeg-4 and HEVC are both enabled (depending on your roku model) Also make sure that H.264/HEVC direct play are enabled as well.
To do this on ruku enter jellyfin app ->* -> settings -> playback
For the firestick - I have never used one but I think it's androidtv based, if so, try going to your playback settings, select your player, and choose the libVLC player.
These may or may not help with your issue - the best bet is to find cheapest intel minipc you can that supports QSV then you should be able to transcode to just about anything.
