Features & Capabilities

Streaming LAN Cast sends the video playing in your current Firefox tab to a smart TV, AV receiver, or media player on your own network, over DLNA/UPnP or Google Cast (Chromecast, Android TV, Google TV). It works with live streams and with on-demand video, and on-demand video stays seekable on the TV so you can skip around with the remote.

Private by design: everything runs on your own machine and local network. No data about what you watch is sent to any server, no tracking, no analytics, no account.

How it works: a small companion helper (open-source, you run it yourself) does the actual casting. The extension finds the devices on your network, lets you pick one, and tells the helper what to cast. It only ever talks to the helper on your loopback address (127.0.0.1).

You install the helper once (Windows, macOS, Linux): https://fabriziosantidev.github.io/streaming-lan-cast/

Cast the current tab to DLNA/UPnP or Google Cast devices
Live streams and on-demand video, seekable on the TV

Optional source detection for sites that need it (off by default)
Available in 10 languages

Is Streaming LAN Cast Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Streaming LAN Cast requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Allows reading and modifying clipboard content, which can be sensitive, posing a moderate privacy risk.
Low ******* ****** ** *** ********* ******** ***

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Streaming LAN Cast is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
