Maybe you can create a local dns entry on your home router, of, if google sets 8.8.8.8 on chomecasts, you can pass a "http://192.168.1.2/npm-web-server/video.mp4" ?

I honestly don't know how the Chromecast is set up. Would that prevent me from being able to access Google Play content? I seem to be able to Cast to Amazon FireTV sticks and PS4s, though I have no idea if they work since I don't have one, nor do I know if that even works.
