My manager used to stream iPhone and iPad content to Apple tv without any issue.
two days ago, he called me and ask if he close the macbook lid while he is streaming EUROSport into Apple tv. I told him you can do it but you have to plug the power adapter.
I am shocked when he says the computer goes to sleep once he close the lid. I read an article on apple website says that I have to plug external screen via cable to stream on apple tv otherwise the laptop lid will goes to sleep.

Is there a way to keep the streaming between macbook and apple tv or any smart tv support Airplay 2 wirelessly while closing the macbook lid please?
