Answer 1

I didn’t understand exactly your question. I suppose you want to place img over a background-image if yes check the following example:

html

<div>
    <img id="play" src="http://dummyimage.com/40x40/454/000&text=Play">
    <img id="pause" src="http://dummyimage.com/40x40/848/000&text=Pause">
</div>

css

div {background:url("http://dummyimage.com/300x300/000/fff&text=video") no-repeat;
    height:300px;
    width:300px;
    position:relative;
}
img#play {
    position:absolute;
    bottom:0;   
}
img#pause {
    position:absolute;
    bottom:0;
    left:40px;
}

div has position:relative and imgs inside div have position:absolute. This will allow you to manipulate the position of any images in the scope of div. Using box offsets top, bottom,left,right you can move the images in the place you need.
