Title: Remote control for video server
Post by: gullyg on August 17, 2004, 08:17:38 am

Hi guys, just bought a SL5500, v. happy with it.
Anyways heres my question.

Apart from ssh/telnet/vnc does anyone know of a way to remote control mplayer/xine/other linux based video player.  I'm wanting to setup a box with a tv as the head and then output videos to it remote controling it from my zaurus.  I've seen the Emotion project (remote control winamp) however is there an equiv for linux?

Many thanks

Iain

Not really relevant, but sort of (search the page for Zaurus): http://www.sllug.org/how-to/linux-htpc/lirc.html (http://www.sllug.org/how-to/linux-htpc/lirc.html)
