    Hopefully so! I wouldn’t personally bet that the devs of every TV app correctly expire these codes within a short time frame πŸ˜… I’ve seen far worse security gaffes, I’m sure you have too.
    Aaron Parecki
    Fair! Thankfully these codes come from the authorization server rather than the app, so unless you're also building our own AS there's less of a chance of messing that one up! Your comment about the QR code is spot on tho! That's an optimization the app dev can do for better UX

    I thought the exact same thing but was too lazy to get my laptop out so I could scan the pictures with my phone to check if they indeed contain the unique code too or just the same generic URL πŸ˜‚ in case it wasn’t obvious they’re not my screenshots. Hopefully the codes expire.
    Aaron Parecki
    They do! They also don't (can't) contain any identifying information at this stage in the flow. The only risk in sharing these screenshots is if you share them within like 10 minutes of seeing it, and then the "attacker" can log in their account to your TV so πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

    PSA to all TV app developers: when a user first signs-in please add a QR code that contains the β€œsign-in through your browser” URL along with the unique code as a query parameter.

    It will delight your users who have a phone that supports it (most do now)

    Examples πŸ‘‡
    Aaron Parecki
    I'm very curious why the code but not the QR is obfuscated in the first one, but the QR and not the code is obfuscated in the second one... they contain the same data! But yes this is a good UX improvement on top of the OAuth device flow πŸ‘

    @aaronpk I haven't seen the movie yet, but now you just reminded me of our karaoke duet in the Before Times. πŸ₯²πŸŽ€πŸ‘€

    I was just thinking about that too! Hopefully it's possible again sometime soon

    As my shirt here shows, I'm firmly in the @ecammtweets fam, but I just realized that @OBSProject lets you squeeze sources...meaning it's possible to stream with an anamorphic lens.

    This is my official Ecamm feature request. 😬
    Aaron Parecki
    I did a live demo of how to do the anamorphic squeeze correction with the ATEM Mini Pro yesterday just for you! πŸ“ΈπŸ˜‡πŸ₯‚ Skip to 2:01:58 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtFe6YOcL7M&t=7318s

    Cool! Are you using someone big to send the emails? To get through spam filters, I mean.
    Aaron Parecki
    Yeah for sure. I'm using Mailersend right now, but it's also easy to swap out the email provider for whatever.

    The 3 aluminum parts under the Atem is the one kit from DVE Store. I merely added two pieces to support the Streamdeck. Switched to different corner brackets, too. These are much more discreet. Now just need an iPad bracket. Hint hint hint. :-)

    Ah that's awesome! Great job!

    It gave me a reason to buy a band saw - which took longer to set up than to cut the 2020 extrusion for the stand. :-)

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
