Better MI codec support

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've been testing native media flagging and using your generated media
info. I don't know if this can be changed but all encoded videos are pulled
as MPEG-4 Visual. Of course this includes mostly Xvid and DivX encoded
movies. I would like to distinguish between the codec names. Currently it
seems XBMC pulls it's metadata from the nfo using what you have as "Format
Info:" Is it possible to output to "Format Info:" the actual codec name?
Example xvid nfo below:

Video Stream 1
- Codec: MPEG-4 Visual
- Format Info: MPEG-4 Visual
- Duration: 1h 3mn 43s 240ms
- BitRate: 1 144 Kbps
- CodecID: XVID
- CodecID Info: 
- Scan type: Progressive

So if I were to scan my movies without using a NFO xbmc would natively know
the exact codec. Discussion on the values here

The next version does not use mediainfo.dll, and instead uses the exact same 
method
and outputs the same results as XBMC's native scraper.
