I think all this really involves implementing is scroll wheel up/down and left/right (i.e. if you scroll up/down on your mouse in vlc the volume goes up/down)

This could be loosely related to Ticket #138 ("use existing dot-files"). If the underlying mplayer process would read in the configuration files, then you could just add a few lines to ~/.mplayer/input.conf, e.g.

MOUSE_BTN3 volume 1
MOUSE_BTN4 volume -1
MOUSE_BTN5 seek -10
MOUSE_BTN6 seek 10

The problem is, however, if you have a mouse with extra buttons (i.e. media keys and the like), then the button numbers could get mixed up. Therefore it might be preferable to have this controlled by the GUI.
