How do I get a serial number by Receiver Application on Chromecast

I'm developing a Receiver Application on the Chromecast. I want to use a serial number in order to limit the viewing on multiple devices at the same time.

How do I get a serial number by Receiver Application on Chromecast. I could not find it from the developer's guide.

As part of the device discovery message exchange, device-desc.xml is received by the sender app which has UDN value. This UDN is a UUID and I assume you can use it to uniquely identify the device and may not even need the serial no for your purpose.

The serial number is not exposed programmatically.
