unix command line tool <find> and compare the first line of data?
geektest: write a one-line perl script to do the same?
there's an OS X utility called Filebuddy that could do fancy finds (e.g. find files of same byte length, or whaterver and case save the various find 'settings' - maybe there is similar tool for XP/W2K
the standard OS X find tool has abiltity to find content - but is limited to text strings
it sounds lo-tech, but find <all> files sorting the output by byte size. you could restrict searches to .mov or .avi or .divx to speed up manual process of searching results file.
