Only big files such as videos you can rip from the original archives and keep the new ones from the patch (since the original ones will be never used).

I assumed srep wouldn't be able to do anything with the modified files as I assumed srep can only work with identical duplicates, looks like I'll have to start reading some theory literature! I'll have a look for any video files though!
