Screen resolution will make for X,Y coordinates that work for that resolution. I suggest finding a method that works and then try with one set of values and see what happens and if its not enough go with greater or lesser values for X,Y until you have it placed where you want it.
As per my note in my initial post where this could be used maliciously, I unfortunately cant give step by step instructions, but you have a good safe direction to go in for your need to hide it off to the side for your video player/kiosk.
Everything we help out with here at Computer Hope we need to ensure that we aren't aiding people in making malicious problems etc. So I am able to point a direction to go in, but unable to give step by step instructions because I can see all sorts of people using a cookbook method for malicious intent. This direction will work, and will take some work to achieve, and I used this method 15 years ago for a kiosk that I built, but I cant go into specifics beyond what i have already shared unfortunately.
The only way to really achieve hiding something is to program it as a service which can all happen behind the scenes, but that too i cant share info on because it can be used improperly, but someone who knows how to program at that level wouldnt need help from others and are likely already out there making those services, but we have to make sure that stuff like that doesnt get into the wrong hands etc. So I cant go into how to convert a launcher to a service etc.
