hardlink to multiple locations?

i'm currently using the amc script to sort and process my Downloads folder and hardlink to my cloud storage folder:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output /home/owner/gdrive --action hardlink -non-strict /home/owner/Downloads
is it possible to specific additional hardlink output location on the same line? or would I have to call the filebot script twice?

Option 1:
Call the amc script twice.

Option 2:
Call the amc script once. Then mirror other locations via --db xattr. I'd pick Option 2 because it's faster and more reliable.

something like this?

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output /home/owner/gdrive --db xattr --action hardlink -non-strict /home/owner/Downloads 
filebot -script fn:xattr --output /home/owner/newfolder --action hardlink -non-strict /home/owner/Downloads

Process as usual:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output /Media --action hardlink -non-strict /Downloads
Mirror xattr tagged files to another destination:

Code: Select all

filebot -rename -r /Media --db xattr --action hardlink --output /Mirror --format "{plex}"
