Abstract:
Various arrangements are presented for using an electronic device for content playback. A television receiver may provide to the device access to a shared encryption key. The shared encryption key may be used to decrypt content from an over-the-top (OTT) content host system. The device may request content from the OTT content host system using the set of credentials. The device may then receive encrypted content from the OTT content host system, wherein the encrypted content corresponds to the requested content. The encrypted content received from the OTT content host system may be decrypted by the device using the shared encryption key. The device may then output for presentation the decrypted content.
