Kamal,
It is plausible. There are choreographies that can do
app2app authC/authZ using OpenID/OAuth mechanisms. The browser is one
mechanism and imho is not the only one. It all depends on the trust
fabric, the credential flow (how it is acquired, accessed and stored)
and the capability of the devices.
I would be happy to discuss - but I do not have any special knowledge on
set-top box implementation. Have you worked out your general authC/authZ
framework ? Also do you have the use cases /scenarios that requires
these mechanisms ?
Cheers

Subject: [OpenID board] Question on implementation of OAUTH/OpenID for
Set-top-box
Reply-To: [email protected]
Hi,
We are evaluating the integration of OpenID/OAUTH for our clients so
that there could be a seamless user experience of Authentication on
Playstation/Set-top-box. In due course we investigated it a bit and
found that OpenID/OAUTH 2.0 follows a redirection model FROM Relying
Party TO OpenID Provider through the UserAgent, which happens to be
browser in all example implementation we have seen.
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 OpenID 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?
Are there any implementations done for Set-Top-Box by any other company
we could leverage some design discussions?
Appreciate your early response.
Thanks in advance.
