Question

How can I apply Keywords to avi videos?

I have quite a few .avi videos.  Apparently I can't apply Keywords to the metadata.  Should I convert these files?  If so is .mp4 the best?  Is there a converter I should prefer?  Or other suggestions?

Thank you

    I appreciate your response. However, for some reason when I select my
    keyword for an .avi file, it doesn't 'stick'. The box by the keyword is
    momentarily filled in, but then goes back to being empty. I thought maybe
    it was the particular file - .avi that just wouldn't take a keyword.

    Or maybe it is me??? What am I missing or doing wrong?

    Thank you
