  Not that I know of.  When we want to play a movie, we usually
  hyperscript the object to run a script, and in the script we place
  the movie where we want to.  Here is an example of the script.  Call
  it with the movie name as an argument.

  /usr/sbin/movieplayer -fNv -S$X1,$Y1,360,243 -l 1 -z $ZOOM $1

  Define your zoom factor ($ZOOM) and position ( X1 Y1 ) in front of
  this.
