    Hello,

    i am just getting into hosting my Music on my Jellyfin server. I was wondering if i can 'assign' one song to belong to multiple albums. Some songs are released both as a singe and in an album. 
    In my current setup i have the singles in their own folder (and album) but this way they are missing in the full album release.

    I am looking for a way to 'assing' a song to multiple albums without copying the file to the other album folder. I thought about using symlinks, but this just puts the song in to the other album without any metadata (probably since the file metadata still shows the other album).

    Is there a way to do this with Jellyfin?

    Negative. There is no way to assign a song to multiple albums. And Jellyfin does not follow symlinks for files, but it will follow symlinks for folders
