On a 16.04 LTS I managed to render Synology videos on the Google Chromecast. You must use a VLC 3 to render the videos to Chromecast but unfortunately you cannot browse the network (upnp). sudo dpkg -i libupnp6_1.6.19+git20160116-1_amd64.deb This will enable VLC 2 to browse the network. As soon as you located the video you want to play then RC the video and a click on 'information' and a popup is displayed. Then below the URL of the video is displayed like http://192.168.0.25:50002/v/NDLNA/1.avi. You can open this URL from VLC 3 and render to Chromecast.
