only the Roku and the partner devices (TVs from LG, Samsung, and others added later) have the stream beta. the mention of android OS is for smart devices.

Understood, thanks, but...
This is from the Comcast xFinity sites:

your terms of service (terms and conditions) have you agree to not use other than approved devices., and Google TV is not an authorized device. however from a smart device you can stream to the Chromecast device.
