This is all kinds of wrong. Consoles don't work that way. Unless one of them allows for a streaming application to run which would enable you to stream from a running PC elsewhere on your network, it's not possible to run a program written to run on an entirely different OS from the one which runs on the host system. E.g. Playstation 5 does not run Windows, so you can't run Windows applications on a PS5.

Your options are either to connect a PC (or laptop) directly up to your TV, or use a set top box like the Nvidia Shield which does support the use of PC streaming apps like Moonlight to stream content from your PC to your TV (with a very minimal, but sometimes noticable injection of latency.)

Thanks for the feedback. So I guess the best way to describe what I’m aiming to do is say a tv version of a SteamDeck.

You can connect a StreamDeck to your TV. Most handhelds and NUCs use HDMI-out.

Good to know. Maybe that’s the route I need to take. Is it like the Switch where there’s a docking station?
