Please see this post and this post.
Expanding upon the second link, you can generate an M3U list in your target directory by including lines similar to this:
@tools@\Tag.exe --playlist --sort track --a-artist "@cdartist@" --a-title "@album@" --plname temp.m3u *.flac REM ** Workaround for %-chars disappearing from the playlist filename when using tag.exe. REN temp.m3u "$artist$ - $album$.m3u"
Though of course you'll need Tag.exe. [1]. Replace "flac" with the appropriate format where necessary. Put these lines 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 different lines:
@tools@\Tag.exe --playlist --nocheck --a-artist "@cdartist@" --a-title "@album@" --plname temp.m3u *.m4a REM ** Workaround for %-chars disappearing from the playlist filename when using tag.exe. REN temp.m3u "$artist$ - $album$.m3u"
We use the addition of "--nocheck" to force a playlist without extended information, since the latest TAG original will not read m4a tracks.
