Windows Central Question

On my Android phone running KitKat, (after I've turned on the TV) I can open up the Netflix app and cast any program directly to my smart TV. Then I can control the Netflix App, by pausing, rewinding, fast forwarding, etc. Is there anything like this for WP8.1? I really want to get the HTC M8 for Windows, but I love this feature on Android.

PS: I bought a Lumia Icon running WP8, and was disappointed that I can't do this on the Icon. I'm hoping that something changed in WP8.1

I don't quite seem to understand your question? You want to "cast" Netflix to your Smart TV but not screen mirror it?
