Summary0005108: Backslash in metadata causes folder creation in auto-organize
DescriptionOrganizing the below track causes an extranious subfolder to be created outside the normal mask parameters.

title: C:\del *.mp3
artist: Marco V

filemask: \Music\<artist>\<artist> - <title>

Proposed Solution: ignore backslashes in metadata for folder creation, only backslashes in the file masks should create folders.

I agree, but it can't be ignored. It has to replaced with another character (or be removed).

Agreed. Should be treated the same as e.g. a ":" in the metadata. Change it to a "-" in the filename.

It should be enough to add '\' to file character mappings (probably to '-'). We just have to make sure it isn't somehow incorrectly applied also to backslashes that are part of full path.

I've added this mapping in 1208. Also for manual update of ini file user should add 5C=2D into FilenameMappings section.
