I don't know how to control the position exactly.

For me the animation always appears at the position of "the next line". So 
"%center/left/right" controls the position horizontally and I insert black 
lines to control the position vertically.

I usually have the animation center with text above and below. "%cont" does 
not allow me to put 2 animations side by side as I would for 2 images - But I 
notice that "%mark/again" can be used to place a second animation or text next 
to the first:

%mark, left
%xsystem "plaympeg -l lssanim_zoom.mpg"
%again, right
%xsystem "plaympeg -l lssanim_zoom.mpg"
