Sounds like you are describing Synology. Older DS1520+ would be a great choice. It has a graphics chip which would allow transcoding remotely. But since you most of the streaming happens locally you could as well choose a NAS without GPU. DS1621+ would still manage to convert 1080p video and stream original non-transcoded 4k files to your compatible devices.
People choose Qnap 73A series so they could install GPU card. Without it, it is not a very good multimedia NAS. But it could still cope with 1080p.
Asustor apps will not impress you. If you like to play and configure things you can choose Asutor or Qnap, but the reliable solution will be from Synology even though themselves are far from perfect.
