Many thanks Achim - your JS patch works fine.  I have a couple more questions 
if that's OK:

1. Do you think that what I am trying to achieve could be achieved with a Music 
Visualizer composition, so that I could bypass iVisualize and run iTunes in 64 
bit mode?

2. In the billboard patch that handles the track information do you think it is 
possible to dynamically set the size of the text to fit the width of the screen 
if the text exceeds this width?  At the moment for tracks/artists with long 
names the text is running off the edge of the screen.

Thanks again,

Nick
