I'm doing it with XMMS and xmms-shell. For example playing control is done
like this:

Key z A M Exec exec xmms --rew
Key x A M Exec exec xmms --play-pause
Key b A M Exec exec xmms --next

I know that mplayer uses slave mode to receive commands, but nothing more
actually. Probaby you will have to Exec exec echo 'command' > some_pipe?
