Answer 1

Since you are already using Wifi p2p you can combine it with NanoHttpD server to serve your file to the TV Device over wifi. NanoHttpD is a very small web server which can be used to serve both Rest API's which can then be called by the application embedded on the TV or you can stream files using it.
