The format of format= is the parts to extract from folder and/or filename like so:

{genre}\{artist}\{album}\{track} - {title} or any combination that matches your folder/file structure track=track no, format="" means no format used (so ensure tags="y")

There is also a tags.xml file which contains the texts for ID3v1 tags
