Well, it should be (if at all):  
%artist%-%album%.m3u

Still, it does not work as you have to set a string constant if you want to create a playlist with the built-in function.

Yet, you can create an export that outputs a text file in the format of a playlist. And for an export filename, it is allowed/possible to use variables.

Here is an example:  
[/t/13912/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/13912/1)
