I have 16TB NAS dedicated to storing TV shows. It is just a cabinet with ryzen 2600 and no graphics card. I have installed openmediavault in it to access it via smb to other devices. I am an absolute noob in setting up a server. Please tell me how I should go on about turning it into a media consumption machine.

P. S: I usually use VLC on android and MPV on linux to consume the media.

I wouldn't know how to access Jellyfin through tailscale on a Android tv that is not in the same network, and that wouldn't necessarily be sharing.

I think the most relevant thing is that using DDNS implies exposing to the internet which for many self hosters is a big no no. As well if you only want one or two machines , maybe tailscale can be a very easy way to setup.... I guess it boils down to the OPs needs.
