This is a very arbitrary field. It depends completely on the eye of the beholder. You should not put too much meaning into it, but rather use it as a general pointer of quality. Possible values are; ''eyecancer, very low, low, med, high, very high.'' | This is a very arbitrary field. It depends completely on the eye of the beholder.

As a '''general''' guideline, refer to the below for a soft-rule convention that is generally followed. The below table can be seen as a "default" or "starting point". If a particular file has sub-par quality, mark down its qualid field relative to the default, as appropriate. Also note, the historical context of the anime should be kept in mind. For example. if an anime is released in the 70s, and the highest quality medium of release is LD, it may be appropriate to bumpthe quality field up a level for the LD release, relative to the defaults below; the goal is to use the qualid field as a differentiator, to identify the LD release as the definitive release relative to other options that may be available (TV, VHS, etc).<br> | |||
