I've got an Intel NUC I could do this with. Is there a video player app for iOS that kids could use (i.e. Interface isn't super complex), that'd play remote media?

Edit: Looked into this myself just now. VLC Streamer looks decent, as does Infuse by Firecore.

Also check out Plex Server. It's awesome. The management side is particularly well done.

Safari should work well enough with a webserver file listing of MP4s.

You could drag an icon to the desktop for an HTML page with thumbnails if it was necessary to get fancy.

VLC also has a great iOS app that can stream and/or download from a desktop running the companion app.
