 From a  quick look at local_conf.py there's the following entries about 
remote control. I have no experience with either but maybe others can 
comment?

#
# Remote control daemon. The server is in the Freevo main application,
# and the client is a standalone application in rc_client/
#
# ENABLE_NETWORK_REMOTE = 1
# REMOTE_CONTROL_HOST = '127.0.0.1'
# REMOTE_CONTROL_PORT = 16310


#
# Remote control daemon. Similar to the one above, but uses TCP instead
# of UDP. It is possible to send commands with a telnet client.
#
# ENABLE_TCP_NETWORK_REMOTE = 0
# REMOTE_CONTROL_TCP_HOST = '127.0.0.1'
# REMOTE_CONTROL_TCP_PORT = 16311
