I don't know that adding file types to that file will "just work" -- I 
think the list of types in that file represents types that getid3 knows 
how to verify. If getid3 doesn't know about that file type it will fail 
no matter what you put into that file. Unless you:

- extend getid3 itself; not a bad choice and good for the community to 
give back. THEN you need to add the type to cc-getid3.php

OR

- write your own verifier, and chain it to the existing one:

//------------------------------------------------------------
global $CC_UPLOAD_VALIDATOR;

$old_validator = $CC_UPLOAD_VALIDATOR;
$CC_UPLOAD_VALIDATOR = new MyValidator();

......
class MyValidator {
function FileValidate(&$formatinfo)
{
    global $old_validator;

	if( /* I can validate */ )
         {
             return;
         }
         return $old_validator($formatinfo);
}

}
//------------------------------------------------------------

something like that.
