BTW - if I use Bounds, it messes up the location of the play controls.

I need the code to be really specific because I just don't seem to understand how to use the other discussions to solve this for me. I need every step laid out for me. Something like the following (which doesn't work, of course):

tell application "QuickTime Player"
   set window_position to {475, 700}
   set window_size to {475, 575}
   play movie
end tell

tell application "QuickTime Player" set w to window 1 set bounds of w to {475, 700, 475 + 475, 700 + 575} end tell

I can't see a problem using "bounds".

Maybe I didn't understand exactly your positioning strategy, because the script above requires a specially tall screen (1275 in the vertical resolution is high.)
