Yes, have you reviewed the previous work that Bryce, myself and others
have done on this SVG module for getid3? I don't think you will need to
hack up getid3.php at all, and would urge you to try not to in fact.

Yes, totally agree..

Roan, hopefully you can provide us with some more details and put some
code up so that we can all test it out.

I think you should definitely be testing this with the latest supported
edition of getid3 in ccHost, which is 1.7.3.
