unpatched:

  xmga, xv, x11, gl, gl2:
    in the middle of the screen

  sdl:
    top-left corner

-geometry 50%:50% did not change anything, I did not test -xineramascreen
as I only have one monitor.

patched:

  xmga, xv, x11, gl2

  gl, sdl:
    top-left corner

with -geometry 50%:50% vo_gl seems to create the window in the top-left
corner but then quickly move it to the center; same for vo_xmga, but
the movement is quicker.

My window manager is dwm 4.0.
