TV as extended desktop screen via DLNA?

Wirelessly as a quick, convenient extra screen with laptop from time to time.

Is there any solution ready to do this?

I know I can already send my mbp's desktop to tv with vlc, but this is like "mirroring".

What I'd like to do is, that I could define a "virtual monitor" with resolution of 1920x1080 and send that to tv with vlc or any other app that would act as dlna server sending "live" picture of that virtual screen.
