Why have we no option to cast videos to a DLNA/UPnP enabled device? Firefox is just blank on this, very outdated.

We don't want to violate any patents. It's not an open-source solution.

Chromecast was not mentioned in my post. UPnP is not Chromecast. There are other solutions than just Chromecast specific. Not offering an alternative solution, not offering an solution like UPnP, leaves Firefox outdated.
