Well NymphCast does that too. The 2nd feature mentioned in their README:

> Streaming online content by passing a URL to the server.

I suspect what they mean is digging around in the source of a webpage to find the content url, hoping it's not obfuscated or DRM'd, and passing that; not "passing a URL" in the sense of streaming arbitrary web pages as Chromecast is able to do.

Why wouldn't it be able to do both? youtube-dl has solved that exact use-case for years.
