I assume these devices run some kind of Linux kernel, with a stripped down Linux distro.

The problem there is proprietary hardware blobs, no one’s made open-source drivers for any of the myriad TV manufacturers, each with their own OS.

How do emby or jellyfin devs develop clients on roku?
I would think, if you have that level of access, you could also stop or patch whatever OS services they run.
Surely you can ssh into these devices right?
