After a bit of struggling I am able to send YT video to Chromecast using https://github.com/irfanhabib/youtube-castv2-client

So it should be possible for us to copy their token flow, i.e. all the tokens flow (screenId, XSRF token, lounge id, playlistId, sessionID, videoID) in YoutubeController.prototype.loadWithNewSession (source at https://github.com/irfanhabib/youtube-castv2-client/blob/master/YoutubeController.js )

Reopening, it does not work for files recently taken from MusicBrainz DB (which do not have exact Youtube link yet).
