I think I would be looking more toward size of the cover in bytes,
rather than dimensions.  Should be easy to do a directory search for
any cover.jpg over some specific size in bytes.

The tagging program Mp3tag offers a couple of variables for examining
embedded cover art.


Code:
--------------------
    
  %_covers%     Count of cover art in the tag of the file
  %_cover_size% Size of first cover art in the tag of the file in bytes
  %_cover_type% Cover type of first cover art in the tag of the file
  
--------------------


You could easily load up your whole library and the sort (or filter) by
%_cover_size%.  I have no idea, however, what a safe maximum size might
be.  Also make sure you don't have any bitmaps (bmp files) as embedded
covers.  I don't know whether or not the number of images embedded in a
file will give the scanner problems, but it might also be something to
watch.
