Will android 4.2.2 support screen streaming to chromecast

I want to cast my samsung GT-P5113 android 4.2.2 screen to chromecast. My chromecast app menu is missing the cast screen / audio option.
Is this function only available in android 4.4.2 & above?

According to this, it runs on 4.4.2 and above.

The "cast screen" feature only works for sure on the 25-20 devices listed on Google's web site. Several Samsungs and LGs work. As they state, other devices "may or may not work if they have 4.4.2 and above. It is in Beta.
Both our S5 and LG G4 work almost perfectly and will cast anything you can display on your phone screen to your TV panel.
Posts on the users forum w. some devices not on the "approved device list" get the option on the Chromecast app to cast the screen, but often doesn't work.

As developer, I notice that I cannot cast to chromecast my last app with a device under 4.4.2
