An idea... Low, NearSD, SD, HD, HRHD, FullHD:
Low: Anything less than NearSD.
NearSD: A lot of dvd rips have a X resolution of 640 and a pixel aspect of 1:1 plus cropped black bars.
SD: X between 704 and 720 _and_ Y between 480 and 576.
HD: 1280 X and 720 Y. 720 can be less when cropped. OAR is around 540 Y -+ some %.
HRHD: X of 960. Y varies alittle.
FullHD: Anything with 1080 lines (Y). Actually can be less than 1080 when black bars are cropped again. X

Should be possible to derive some logic from the wiki and the releases/encodes present to make the flaging.
I guess the scraber can easily take the resolution from simple containers; avi, mkv. DVD might be a little more tricky. The right VOB files should be checked.
Some people might just want (Low,) SD and HD, while others want the detailed flags. I don't know.
Yes I'm talking about DivX and Xvid - not AVC or x264 which is a newer and much more demanding codec.
Another idea... Don't know how usefull.. Frame drops per media center could also be logged in the library and thereby display some sort of indication of the playability of the video.
