Soundcloud HTML5 widget can't be used with Xenforo

When trying to get the Soundcloud HTML5 widget to embed in a Xenforo forum I notice that it requires the Track ID which is not availiable in the URL of the page. Is there a way to get the track id without having to scrape the source code or force the user to get it from the whole embed code?

You can use the /resolve endpoint: http://developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/reference#resolve

$ curl -v 'http://api.soundcloud.com/resolve.json?url=http://soundcloud.com/matas/hobnotropic&client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID'
