Some ideas

I use Packard Bell FastMedia Remote using Girder with the help of this guide.

I think the guide is out of date for the newest version of Girder. I use Girder v3025.

Good luck.

Yup, it has winamp plugins with the latest releases. Could probably use the ATI file player and the library application also.

Checkout WinLIRC and build your own.

There's also a WinAmp Plugin that allows you to use a Gravis (or similar) GamePad as a wired remote (good for use in one room).
