Just a thought . . .
Consider replacing C:\Program Files
with %ProgramFiles%
or %ProgramFiles(x86)%
If my theory is correct, your \\RemoteComputer is 64-bit and you are trying to run the 64-bit version of C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe. Because it is in the UAC 'protected' area, it is not running, since psexec.exe is launching via a 32-bit cmd process.
Let us know if this helps.
