How to use a Smart TV as main display via AirPlay without using cables?

Hi again

As the LCD in my 2020 MacBook(purchased superseded model in l‘23) has cracked and pixilated over 1/2 the screen I’m trying to use a smart tv as main display via airplay. It connects but with some difficulty as I need to access the display settings via systems coz the airplay button is in the damaged half. It keeps dropping out tho so having to reconnect several times in a session. Any fixes for this guys without cables? Can the menu bar be repositioned? I tried moving the displays but no luck.
