Based on a CPAN search for modules with "play" in their name, I'd
suggest calling your module Media::MPlayer. However, since that
TLNS doesn't exist, maybe it could be shoehorned into
Video::MPlayer, even though that's not what you're using the
module for. (It could be argued that video playback is MPlayer's
most important function.. but I dunno. *shrug*)

If you want to use Media::, bouncing a mail off of the module
cabal might be a good idea - you're establishing a new TLNS after
all.

::Slave is a good idea IMHO, for the reason you stated, making it
Video::MPlayer::Slave. Or maybe ::Master, because the module is
the master and MPlayer is the slave. Or maybe ::Remote.. or
something. Pick one to your liking. :)
