The Fire HD 10 only supports 1080p. The current version of the Jellyfin Android TV app restricts resolutions based on a hardcoded list, and the Fire HD device is not included on that list. As a result, it will attempt to play 4K/ not request a lower resolution from the server, leading to poor playback performance. However, the next major version 0.18 will introduce an automatic resolution check, which should resolve this issue (release date is not yet available).
The Jellyfin app relies on the Webui and you should be able to limit the resolution on the server. To do so, click on your profile avatar in the top right corner of the home screen, then select "Playback." Under "Video Quality," set the "Maximum Allowed Video Transcoding Resolution" to 1080p and check the option to "Limit maximum supported video resolution."
