Wow, that is nasty. There is probably a syntax error in there. Use a
heredoc in cases like this. Something like this:

$xml = <<< EOB
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?quicktime type=...
....
EOB;

Much less likely to make mistakes this way since you don't need to
escape anything (except $) and you can still use variables in the block
of text.
