Video lags when screen sharing

Hi,
My video and audio lag and freeze when I'm sharing a Powerpoint deck (Macbook). I also notice the laptop getting very hot. I need to put an ice pack under the laptop. Any ideas how to prevent overheating and lagging?
Thanks!

When you project your screen to your smart TV and receive screen mirroring lag, you need to check the adapter you are using. Maybe the adapter you use currently doesn't support your device. In this condition, it is a good choice to use an HDMI adapter to get rid of the lag.
