    Use a second laptop or headed computer as another monitor via ffmpeg and mpv

This is much faster than VNC, but obviously does not allow for control.
We use the network to transport the stream - I'm getting excellent results over wi-fi. You can do much better with Ethernet, with Ethernet I guess you can use VNC. I don't think you can use usb, bt or hdmi to do this.
My first laptop has Arch Linux with xfce, my second one has Gentoo
Linux with fluxbox.
