I'm by far not an expert in POV-Ray code, so others should correct me if I'm
wrong. To the best of my knowledge, you should change the following:
- Add the necessary data types to the Media_Struct in frame.h
  (e.g. a pointer to a pigment)
- Initialize your additional data fields in Create_Media in media.cpp
- Make sure memory is freed in Destroy_Media in media.cpp (if necessary)
- Copy your data in Copy_Media in media.cpp
- Add code to parse your extension in Parse_Media in parstxtr.cpp
- If you add new tokens, declare them in parse.h and define them in   
  tokenize.cpp
- In sample_media in media.cpp the color is computed according to
  extinction, scattering, and emission. Make the changes you have in mind
  here.

Best regards
Thomas
