Is there a way i can easily render my chinese cartoons in mpv on my main pc and then stream it to a crappy laptop hooked up to a tv, without any compression or desynched audio/video.
The laptop itself is not powerful enough to render the video.
Which gpu?

How old is this laptop that it can't play video?

i thought about that but its usually laggy af, even if both the pcs are on the same network.

about 10 years, bought it when vista came out.
Streaming never ever works the way you want it to. Get a very long cable or if you really really want to stream, get a Amazon fire TV stick or Chromecast and install Plex if they still let you. Either way it won't work perfectly. That or man up and buy a 15 dollar 15ft HDMI cable.

Literally any old core2duo mobile or desktop CPU is good enough to play 10-bit 1080p anime.
Go to a fucking yardsale.
ffmpeg
>mfw streaming porn to my laptop
Your laptop struggles to play video because it's compressed. So you want to uncompress the video on one PC and stream it to the laptop. Unless your network can handle streaming uncompressed video, you're out of luck. It probably can't unless your laptop is wired. For reference, uncompressed video is (frames per second) * (frame resolution) * (bits per pixel).
720p video is (24) * (1280 * 720) * (8) = 176947200 bits per second = 168.75 mbps
1080p video is (24) * (1920 * 1080) * (8) = 398131200 bits per second = 379.6875 mbps
And remember, it needs to handle simultaneous upload and download at those rates.

didnt even think about that, thanks for the answer.
i will probably end up either using >>54861290, or lowering mpv settings.
literally stream to mp4ffmpeg -i porn_tentacles.mpv porn_tentacles.mp4
unless if the video is 480p and you have 4k display scaling it, no visible loss.
if little faggot,ffmpeg -q:v 0 -i nigger_fuck.mpv nigger_fuck.mp4
just to re-encode it

another quick google search shows this to stream it

Long display cable is your best bet
