If mplayer supports the -g or -geometry option, you can probably use that. Try this to get a feeling for it:
Code:
xeyes -g +0+0 # Puts eyes in the top left corner
xeyes -g +0-0 # Puts eyes in the bottom left corner

and so on.

smplayer(1)							     SMPlayer							       smplayer(1)

NAME

       SMPlayer - The best GUI frontend for MPlayer

SYNOPSIS

       smplayer   [-minigui]   [-mpcgui]   [-defaultgui]   [-config-path   <directory>]   [-send-action  <action_name>]  [-actions  <action_list>]
       [[-no]-close-at-end] [[-no]-fullscreen] [-sub <subtitle_file>] [-pos <x> <y>] [-size <width> <height>] [-add-to-playlist] [-disable-server]
       [-help|--help|-h|-?] [<media1>] [<media2>]...

DESCRIPTION

       SMPlayer is a GUI media player based on Qt 4, using mplayer(1) as its backend.

OPTIONS

       -minigui
	      Open the mini GUI instead of the default one.

       -mpcgui
	      Open the mpc GUI instead of the default one.

       -defaultgui
	      Open the default gui.

       -config-path <directory>
	      Specify the directory for the configuration files (smplayer.ini, smplayer_files.ini...).

       -send-action <action_name>
	      Try to make a connection to another running instance and send to it the specified action.

	      Example: smplayer -send-action pause

	      The rest of options (if any) will be ignored and the application will exit. It will return 0 on success or -1 on failure.

       -actions <action_list>
	      <action_list>  is  a  list  of actions separated by spaces. The actions will be executed just after loading the file (if any) in the
	      same order as input. For switchable actions you can pass true or false as parameter.

	      Example: smplayer -actions.br "fullscreen compact true"

	      Quotes are necessary in case you pass more than one action.

       -close-at-end
	      Close the main window when the file/playlist finishes.

       -no-close-at-end
	      Do not close the main window when the file/playlist finishes.

       -fullscreen
	      Play the video in fullscreen mode.

       -no-fullscreen
	      Play the video in windowed mode.

       -sub   Specify the subtitle file to be loaded (for the first video only).

       -pos <x> <y>
	      Specify the coordinates where the main window will be displayed.

       -size <width> <height>
	      Specify the size of the main window.

       -h, -help, --help, -?
	      Show the help message and then exit.

       -add-to-playlist
	      If there is another instance running, the media will be added to that instance's playlist. If  there  is	no  other  instance,  this
	      option will be ignored and the files will be opened in a new instance.

       -disable-server
	      Disables the server used to communicate with other instances.  This also disables the possibility to use a single instance.

       <media1> <media2> ...
	      Any  kind  of  file  that SMPlayer can open. It can be a local file, a DVD (e.g. dvd://1), an Internet stream (e.g. mms://....) or a
	      local playlist in format m3u or pls.
