OK, I lied. Another thing …actually two more:

1) You have to right click on the script and select properties, then “unblock” beside Security, otherwise powershell returns errors about the script being un-signed.

2) The OpsMan account must have sufficient privileges to the file/folder when the script is located.

One other note:
The command line parameter for the Command Channel doesn’t trigger properly for me when using “-Command….”.
I got it to work using only X:\Path\to\file\.ps1

You forgot one very important thing.
Your script opens a new instance of the media player every time it triggers and eventually you have numerous instances open.
You command should be:
“C:\Program Files\Real Alternative\Media Player Classic\mplayerc.exe /close”
