Abstract
Various arrangements are presented for using a virtual reality (VR) device for content playback. A television receiver may provide to the VR 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 VR device may request content from the OTT content host system using the set of credentials. The VR 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 VR device using the shared encryption key. The VR device may then output for presentation the decrypted content.
