I've read carefully all the http://lirc.org/html/configuration-guide.html guide (without Appendixes) but I don't know exactly what I should do, in my particular case. Well, the first thing is to install and configure lirc according to the reference and get irwU(1) running. I cannot really explain this much more here, unless you have more specific questions. There is nothing in your particular case which is special to that point. Once irw is running you have a basic lirc installation in place. You then need to create a lircrc file which mplayer uses to map remote buttons to mplayer command strings. This is basically explained in {1], although you need to use 'prog = mplayer'. To debug you use ircat(1) One ircat gives the expected output, you're done and mplayer should work as expected When creating the lircrc file, lirc-config-tool(1) could possibly be helpful by creating a mplayer lircrc template for your remote.
