You could use Network File System (NFS) to share a directory and place the file in it. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo

A possible solution for your needs is a media streaming solution like this project. Have you calculated the bandwidth needs for what you are trying to do? A high quality mpeg-4 stream can reach 4MBp/s per channel. Multiplying this by 10 leaves precious little room for anything else on a standard WiFi channel.
