    How do I edit the metadata of mp4, avi and mkv files?

    Hi, here's what I have in my Details pane for these:
    mp4

    mkv is not taggable in the same way- there is no intrinsic provision for metadata in the format.

    avi similarly offers little. At most I can add a comment - see M&W in the Comments column.


    By default, you will not find file explorer offers all those options.

    There is no absolute consistency in what is available per file type.

    It is possible to edit quite a bit in file explorer (more with a free extension) and in the Properties, Details sheet.

    Programs like mp3tag (donation) are good with a number of audio file formats.

    welcome to TenForums @bomberswarm2

    For .mp4 it's easy, you can edit the metadata from File Explorer, either in the Details tab for its Properties or, if you turn on the Details Pane in File Explorer's View ribbon, you can edit it there too.

    For mkv and avi the details aren't editable in File Explorer, but apparently there are third party metadata editors that can change them.

    How to add details to mkv files for explorer?

    avi to MP4

    Why are you wanting to convert AVIs to MP4s?
