I have been searching but don't seem to find anything;

What I'm trying to find is a realativley simple way to watch videos on the TV in the den from files stored on the PC in the office (across the house).
I have both wired and wireless APs available. My situation won't let me put a PC in the den, and I don't want a full fledged HTPC, just want a way to watch the video files (xvid, divx, mpg) stored on the pc. I have looked into something like the gateway ADC-220 or 320 but they seem to be discontinued.
A simple device like many of the music streaming options with or without remote would be ideal.
What's the consensus here?

I use an XBOX (customized) running Xbox Media Center for that.
Works like a charm, plays anything, and even has shoutcast support and stuff.
