as for lag, it's directly proportional to your wifi intenert speed.

I have had no success mirroring screen to a smart tv (I guess it's equivalent to Chromecast). It may work for a minute. Then disconnets. Same with wifi direct. Throw doesn't work at all. But 3rd partu apps like BubbleUpNP work nice with any media files on your phone.

Let me test it, but keep in mind that your Xperia SP won't work
