As of r46766 [1], the output format used by prop=imageinfo to output metadata has changed. This change will appear in the MediaWiki 1.14 release (after I backport it, which has yet to be done) as well as go live on the Wikimedia servers on the next scap.

The old format looked like this:

<metadata version="1" length="110.93466666667"> <streams> <meta serial="1804289383" group="0" type="Vorbis" vendor="Xiph.Org libVorbis I 20030909" length="110.93466666667" size="1449257"> <header vorbis_version="0" audio_channels="2" audio_sample_rate="48000" bitrate_maximum="0" bitrate_nominal="112001" bitrate_minimum="0" blocksize_0="8" blocksize_1="11" framing_flag="0" /> <comments /dev/dsp="" title="Frédéric Chopin: Walzer Op. 64 No. 1 Des-Dur (Valse minute)" artist="Peter Gerwinski" comment="Licensed under GNU GPL" /> </meta> </streams> </metadata>

Note that the <comments /dev/dsp="" ... /> part is invalid XML. This could happen because parts of the metadata is used in the attributes, which caused lots of bugs.

The new format looks like this:

<metadata> <metadata name="version" value="1" /> <metadata name="length" value="110.93466666667" /> <metadata name="streams"> <value> <metadata name="1804289383"> <value> <metadata name="serial" value="1804289383" /> <metadata name="group" value="0" /> ... </value> </metadata> </value> </metadata> </metadata>

Note the use of name/value pairs, and note how nesting is done.
