In due course we investigated it a bit and found that <span>OpenID</span>/OAUTH 2.0 follows a redirection model FROM Relying Party TO <span>OpenID</span> Provider through the <span>UserAgent</span>, which happens to be browser in all example implementation we have seen.</div><p> We have quick question, As described we are using Blue-Ray players which lacks the ability of having state-of-the-art browsers, is there any possibility of implementing <span>OpenID</span> and OAUTH w/out going thru browser route of redirection, such as any direct API call to get an authentication of user? Is it even feasible?</p><p> Are there any implementations done for Set-Top-Box by any other company we could leverage some design discussions?</p><p> Appreciate your early response.</p><p> Thanks in advance.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Regards,<br>Kamal Mehta<br><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/kamalmehta" target="_blank">http://www.linkedin.com/in/kamalmehta</a><br></p> _______________________________________________<br>board mailing list<br><a href="mailto:board@openid.net">board@openid.net</a><br>http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/board<br></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
