    I set up my library and I have one folder for "Movies" that points to a Movie folder on my hard drive and one file for "Christmas Movies" that points to a Christmas Movie folder on my hard drive. There are a few movies (like Home Alone) that I want to appear in both libraries. So far I tried to create a hyperlink to the movie file and move that to the other folder but it doesn't get picked up in Jellyfin. Then I tried looking for a way to include a path to a specific movie file in the library but I only see a way to point to whole folders in Jellyfin. Ideally I want to avoid having two copies of the file taking up room on my hard drive.

    Thanks for any suggestions!
