Re: Bug 25269

Yes, it is just an array of key IDs.

There are a few options to identify the title:

   - The key ID(s) could include the title ID in them, allowing it to be
   easily extracted on the server. (This forces unique key IDs.)
   - The server can look the title up based on the key ID(s). (This assumes
   they are unique.)
   - The application knows the title and can include this in its request.


Why do you say KID isn't generally unique across streams? That should
probably be a best practice for content providers.
