Currently there's no reliable way to get the cast device ip address that the 
user selected in the browser's dialog.
I need this in order to stream a video directly from the user's machine and not 
from the internet or a server with a fixed IP.

It would be nice if the cast extension would supply this data.

Thanks :)

Could you please clarify more on the requirement because 
1) If you want to access IP address, you can get it from the list of devices in 
cast icon on the chrome browser or using chromecast app on your desktop or 
android device. 

2) If you want to cast local videos, you can access the local file on chrome 
browser and cast the tab onto the device

Let us know if you have a different requirement.
