Virtual "pin-up" movies in other Libraries

[Smiehu 5]

Sometimes I have these same movies in two or more Libraries (because of specific users privileges). This wasted a lot of disk space.
It is possible to create a shortcut to movie between Libraries? The original movie is in one Library physically on disk but in another Library I add this movie like a maybe shortcut?

a symlink to the original file should work

Hi.  I would suggest instead using a common location for both libraries and put the item there.  Some types of links on some file systems may work but my suggestion definitely will.

not in his case as he appears to want to have them separate for diff user cases

I don't understand what you mean...  I think what I suggested will work.  I do this for stuff for my kids and me.  There are folders just they see, folders just I see and folders we all see.

Good idea. It works for me. Thanks.
