I'm having a hard time understanding why the server software should be the same for both video and audio, and why there shouldn't just be separate players. Want video? Install/run the video server software (optionally on the same server a music server is running on). The video player's probably going to be more of an internet video player, but if it can run videos from your own server that's a feature for at least some folks (and maybe the server can cache downloaded HD movies for you so you can get full bitrate and no chance of a latency problem) It shouldn't be that hard to make it feel like a unified system. Make sure the touch can also control the video gear, keep web UI of the two server apps at least somewhat similar in look and feel. Make sure there's a shared API (in the sense that both server apps support the same API) for plugins, so plugin authors can do clever things.
