Okay,

I've been starting to modify the code in order to create a window
positioning function.  I read the note you gave to the guy who tried.

1: create two config options "video-x" and "video-y" by add_integer at the
right place in src/libvlc.h

>>>> I added those variables in :
/*video option*/
add_integer ("video_x", 0, NULL, VIDEO_X_TEXT, VIDEO_X_LONGTEXT, VLC_TRUE);
add_integer ("video_y", 0, NULL, VIDEO_Y_TEXT, VIDEO_Y_LONGTEXT, VLC_TRUE);

2: modify the vout you will use to read the value of "video-x" and "video-y"
using var_Create( p_vout, "video-x", VLC_VAR_INTEGER|VLC_VAR_DOINHERIT );
followed by var_Get( p_vout, "video-x", &val );

>>> i also added  var_Create( p_vout, "video-x",
VLC_VAR_INTEGER|VLC_VAR_DOINHERIT );
but where should I add the var_Get( p_vout, "video-x", &val );

And use this value as the
position when creating the video window.

>>> How ? where ?

need to be able to set up the position of the VLC player trough command
line. Can anybody tell me if somebody is already working on it or if not, we
