Please see this post and this post.

Expanding upon the second link, you can generate an M3U list in your target directory by including a line similar to this:

@tools@\Tag.exe --playlist --sort track --a-artist "@cdartist@" --a-title "@album@" --plname "$artist$ - $album$" *.flac

Though of course you'll need Tag.exe. [1]. Replace "flac" with the appropriate format where necessary. Put this line in the post-processing section of tracks.cfg (where it may copy the log and where it applies the album gain). For AAC tracks, you may have to use a different line:

@tools@\Tag.exe --playlist --nocheck --a-artist "@cdartist@" --a-title "@album@" --plname "$artist$ - $album$" *.m4a


We use the addition of "--nocheck" to force a playlist without extended information, since the latest TAG original will not read m4a tracks.
