[MPlayer-users] using a remote with mplayer

[Michael D. Spiceland]

Anyone,

Have any suggestions on using a remote with mplayer?  

I have a mp3anywhere (mp3remote) from x10.com, receiver model number
MR26A.  There is an xmms plugin for it called x10mp3 but nothing generic
or for mplayer.  If any programs existed that would launch commands when
receiving input from the remote, I think the "slave mode protocol" could
be used to control an existing process of mplayer.

Any ideas?

Michael
