Ok, weird. So, after working out that mergAVPlayerCreateFromURL needs to use a 'put' command as a function, the video would play but not be visible despite that property being set to true. Further investigation showed that the rect when set to 0,0,1024,768 would read back (using mergAVPlayerGet) as 0,-768,1024,768. If I set it to 0,0,512,384, it returns 0,-384,512,384. Setting to 0,200,512,384 returns 0,-384,512,184.
