Don't know if this should be under the hardware section, but it a good a place as any to start.

So my Nvidia card supports Shadowplay and it works great at recording game footage.
Shadowplay also supports twitch streaming.

My TV is a Samsung Smart TV and I can watch Youtube and play videos on my network with the supported DLNA etc

Now The Question is, Is there a way to stream directly (using LAN) to my TV from my PC using Shadowplay?

I know there is steam in-home sharing to stream games to another PC connected to a TV and nVidia have the shield tablet you can connect to a tv and stream to.

I want to just stream Sound and Video ,using shadowplay's encoder. It's outputting and already encoded file and
all one would need is a app on the tv similar to VLC that you could put in a address to the streaming device. So I would of thought it was relativity easy and someone would of done something like this, but I've been searching for a couple of days without finding anything usefull.

Anybody know if this can be done?

Yeah shadowplay for twitch streaming, would skip using nvidia's, you require 3mb up, was actually testing last night and its horrid.

I'm pretty sure this is what you want;

Tx but no. I use this already. I plug my laptop in to my Tv with HDMI and stream from my gaming rig in the other room. I got a 360 wireless controller all setup so gaming that way is great.

I just want a TV to receive an in-game stream from my PC. Purely video and sound no input controls required.
The TV has the ability and the PC also can, there just is no program that does what I want. Maybe if I had the programming skills I could kludge something together but alas I do not!

May Windows 10 will understand my needs! :D Cortana help!

I think I know what you're looking for... read about it just the other day, iirc being launched early this year still. You have one beast PC somewhere in your hosue and it streams your games to whatever big screen you want to play on... Now to remember what the darn thing was called... (ima gonna lol if its shadowplay :p)
 
Razer Forge TV + Razer Cortex: Stream. Not out yet so I'm not sure on the details, but pretty sure that's what you're after.
 
Thanks Archer but that's another hardware solution but I'll probably get myself a shield tablet as I already have the support on my Nvidia Card.

It's just I have the devices and they have the features just they don't work together its pretty annoying.

Intel do a Widi drivers for a wireless display I basically want that but and nvidia option.

I could also do it with hdmi extenders and all that but that more hardware.

Thanks guys, I guess shadowplay uses some propriety type software or hardware that's not open source or I am sure someone would of done something using it.

With Nvidia it's always proprietary tech :/ In my brief look around it is indeed the case here as well which is why I went looking for something else.
