1 movie in 2 different language libraries - iif2fo - 2025-11-03

Hello. Currently, I have a library that looks like this.

Code:
Movies
└── Best Movie Ever (2019)
  └── Best Movie Ever (2019).mp4

The preferred language and region for the "Movies" library is English and United States.

I have another library, "Películas", where the language and region are Spanish and Mexico.

The file "Best Movie Ever (2019).mp4" contains an English and Spanish audio track.

What would be the recommended way to have "Best Movie Ever" show up in both libraries and have the metadata in the corresponding language and region for the given library?

Should I just symlink the movie's folder as is into my Spanish library?

Code:
Películas
└── Best Movie Ever (2019)
  └── Best Movie Ever (2019).mp4

Or should I still symlink, but change the name of the target?

Code:
Películas
└── La mejor película de todos los tiempos (2019) -> Movies/Best Movie Ever (2019)
  └── La mejor película de todos los tiempos (2019).mp4 -> Movies/Best Movie Ever (2019).mp4
