Why Can't Insignia TV Play MP4 Videos from USB?
Normally, a Smart TV will support to play media files from USB but it not includes Insignia TV. The only functionality available through USB is a JPEG viewer/slideshow service on the Insignia TV. To play videos, you would need the Roku box, not the stick. The stick requires a specialized HDMI port that Insignia TV does not have. Chromecast should work in the other HDMI slots too. Some new Insignia Roku TVs might support to play videos from USB cause in the user manual, it lists some video formats for its media player. And comparing to some other older Insignia TV models, their user manuals only list a picture format. For example:
Insignia NS-48DR420NA16 48' Class (47.6' viewable) LED TV Specifications:
MEDIA PLAYER
Supported Video Formats: MKV(h.264/262), MOV(h.264), MP4 (h.264)
Supported Audio Formats: AAC, AC3, AIFF, FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec), MP3, PCM, WAV, WMA
Supported Pictures Formats: GIF, JPEG, PNG
USB Port: Yes

Insignia NS-40D420NA16 40' Class (40' viewable) LED TV Specifications:

Insignia NS-32D310NA17 32' Class (31.5' viewable) LED TV Specifications:

From this list, we can learn that even your Insignia Roku TV supports to play MP4 videos from USB, it only supports H.264 MP4 video. So if your Insignia TV doesn't support to play MP4 video from USB, you can try to use Chromecast to playback the video. But from Chromecast supported video and codec, the MP4 video should be H.264 video codec and AAC and MP3 audio codec. When you can play MP4 videos on Insignia Roku TV from USB, you also need to make sure the MP4 is supported by Insignia Roku TV. You can use a video transcoder to transcode the unsupported MP4 video files to Insignia TV supported formats.
