tooltip-format	string		Format of the default tooltip.
tooltip-format-[status]	string		Format of the tooltip when [status] is one of playing, paused, or stopped.

dynamic-order	list[string]	["title", "artist", "album", "position", "length"]	Choose the order of items in {dynamic}, separated by {dynamic-separator}. If position and length are present and adjacent (in order), they will appear in the format <small>[{position}/{length}]</small>.
[format]-len	integer	-1	Where [format] is the name of a format segment, this is the maximum length allowed for that replacement. If the length of the replacement is greater than this value, it will be truncated with the ellipsis character/string added to the end.
ellipsis	string/char	…	The character to append to the end of a truncated format replacement.
dynamic-len	integer	-1	If the total length of {dynamic} is greater than this value, start removing segments according to dynamic-importance-order to make the string fit within this defined limit.
dynamic-separator	string	-	The separator to use between segments of dynamic-order
dynamic-importance-order	list[string]	["title", "artist", "album", "position", "length"]	Choose which format replacements to omit if the string would be longer than dynamic-len. Format replacement names that appear first are considered higher priority, any that come towards the end are the most likely to be removed.
