I love Tailscale as well and it works flawlessly for everything I’ve ever used it for. However, I can’t install Tailscale on the Roku TV that sits remotely from my server. That’s the whole reason I’m looking for a different way.

There’s no reason your media server needs to be directly exposed to the public internet. Use Tailscale. Get everyone that uses it to sign up for a Tailscale account, and add them all to your Tailnet.
Tailscale will perform better than any tunnel because it’s a direct connection between the two peers - it’s not relaying through an intermediary server like a Cloudflare tunnel would.

Have you read into subnet routers? Tailscale subnet routers

That would be fine for one particular site I’d need to connect, but not on another one.

Can tail scale be setup on tvs and game consoles and such? Or maybe on routers?

Really no reason. Hmm how do I get a Roku to watch? Or get other people to watch stuff on it.
