Hey, I don't have the exact details, but you might want to check the streaming service's website or app for available options. Since your laptop is old, consider using a wired connection like Ethernet for better stability. Look for settings that optimize performance and reduce lag.
Nvidias Gamestream leads, followed by Steam and then Limelight. On Ethernet streaming with Nvidias in home setup, both should function perfectly, though Limelight remains somewhat challenging. Your laptop's capability to decode the video might be a constraint.
I've tested Steam In-Home Streaming. I set up two computers and a router side by side on my desk—one for gaming, the other for office tasks. I streamed from the gaming machine to the office one, and it worked almost smoothly, with only minor issues. If the office unit had a widescreen monitor, everything would be ideal.
