If your NAS has an available media server plugin, an inexpensive Roku
player will render video via DLNA/UPnP to any TV having an available
HDMI input using its "Roku Media Player" app.  If you have a smart TV,
you might find it has a DLNA/UPnP player available in its app store.

I'm not aware of any Raspberry Pi video server solution as "turnkey" as
piCorePlayer is for audio.

You might check out OSMC for Raspberry Pi:

OSMC is based on Kodi which is a well-established media server that also
supports DLNA/UPnP.  If your smart TV has a DLNA/UPnP media player app,
you should be good.  Or, use a Roku as above.

If you like Plex as a media server, installing it to a RPi is not that
difficult:

Many smart TVs have a Plex player available in their app store.  Roku
has one also.

I'd recommend you use a RPi 4 for this as serving video generally takes
more horsepower than does audio.
