esound has the ability to play over a network. I don't have any experience with the sort of thing that you're doing so I guess all I can do is point my finger in the general direction... Another option might be to see if you can get a hold of some software on the desktop that can stream to an MPG file from the TV input. If so, you could point that out a socket and use something like xmms to receive it on the laptop.
