Looking for a QUICK & EASY way to eliminate duplicate videos

I am looking for something that could cut down on multiple copies of videos for the same game, but yet on different platforms. Like Red Dead Redemption is on Xbox 360 as well as PS3. I have 2 copies of the same video, one in the 360 video folder and one in the PS3 video folder. Are there any 3rd party apps that can cut down on these?

I have tried @starplayer app, it scrapes your local videos but it really isn't doing what I need. Looking for a way to assign multiple games to a single video, if that makes sense?

If you remove the video from one of the platforms then that platform will not show the video for the game. LB’s code will not share a single video for the same game in multiple platforms. 

Thx for the reply. Since you can can manually point any game to any video, I was hoping maybe someone had wrote an app or script to do it in bulk...

Only way to accomplish this is to edit your platform and make both of them point to the same video folder. You will run into a lot of false positives in the Cleanup Media tool if you ran it against either specific platform doing this though.

Yes Sir, I had tried that one in the past sorta and it wasn't a good solution. Oh well, the answer is Always NO if ya don't ask, right?
