Im using version 1.9.2 Scratchlive and Version 1.1.1 video plugin.
I'm trying to write tags to the videos and I noticed that the files will not save the tags. How can I edit the tags.

You should be editing the fields within the ScratchLIVE program. This info will be saved to the Metadata folder and linked to those files.
ID3 tag editing is different for Video files - so its always best to edit them within ScratchLIVE itself.

I have videos that I have in my scratchlive library. I attempt to change the name in Scratchlive of the video file. ie thriller to Thriller (clean).
When I load the video on the deck it says Thriller (clean)
one it plays and I look in the library again it has changed back to Thriller

Are your videos on an external HD? If so what format is this external HD?
If your not using an external - it sounds like it could be a corrupt Metadata folder.

What format are these videos? Are they MP4? 1.9.2 used to write tag info for MP4 files to the Metadata folder - now they are written to the MP4 files themselves.
Im thinking its probably a DatabaseV2 issue thats not allowing for the tags to keep the changes. Do you see anything else wierd going on - like other things not saving (like crate and song names etc.)?
