Open-domain video super-resolution (VSR) requires temporally coherent details across widely varying scenes and subjects. However, existing training datasets are often semantically imbalanced and insufficiently diverse. We address this data bottleneck with a structured curation pipeline for open-domain VSR, SCOPE. In this pipeline, we combine task-oriented video selection with hierarchical semantic rebalancing. Applying this pipeline to a large-scale collection of data sources, we construct the SCOPE-VSR dataset for training and SCOPE-test for testing. SCOPE-VSR has approximately 27k videos and provides balanced and diverse coverage of various real-world scenarios and subjects. We further develop GraCo-VSR, a novel framework for one-step video restoration. GraCo-VSR adopts a reliability-aware design with explicit supervision to reduce degradation-induced distortions in motion and texture guidance, allowing the model to benefit more effectively from the diverse training content in SCOPE-VSR. Evaluations show that our model achieves strong reconstruction fidelity and perceptual quality. Our code is available at: https://github.com/gyliao2768/SCOPE-VSR.
