My Linux box is in a completely separate room which is why I am looking for an RF solution.  The mp3remote (and other RF remotes from x10) can be used from the other room.

If I understand posts about x10 remotes they means that in CVS of LIRC 
project there are drivers for such RF remotes. If LIRC supports such 
remotes it will be trivial to use it with Mplayer. (because I don't have 
such device look at www.lirc.org and check if this is true)
