App to edit metadata on video files

I have gone through every app on here and cannot find anything that will do what i want, so i'm posting here for 2 reasons, firstly is there a portable app that will do what i need and secondly if no portable apps does a full blown app (free or payware) do what i need, so what is it i need?

Well it's a simple one i have some video files that have what i can only describe as "metadata" in it that i need/want to edit, for example i have files that may say "come and visit us at www.xyzabc.com for the best advice on spelling" that is the kind of stuff i want to remove or at the very least edit it down to just say a couple of full stops.

So has anyone heard of a portable or full blown app that will do what i need i don't want to spend too much a max maybe of £50

Embedded

It sounds like you're referring to audio embedded in the video, is that correct?

No it's not audio issues, I

No it's not audio issues, I play most of my files with either VLC or MPC-HC when right clicking on the video playing and select properties and look in the "MediaInfo" section it comes up with tons of info stuff like bitrate/codec use that i'm happy to leave there it's the other stuff like what i mentioned above or it may say "video recorded by Dave" or something along those lines it's that kind of junk i want rid of.

Some more info needed

Hi Alloneword,
we need some more detailed information to help out. What kind of video container (mp4/mkv/avi...) do you use, because every one may need another solution. For matroska files (mkv), you can use the MKVToolNix gui to edit the header of a video file. There is a well maintained dev test here in the beta section.
It would help. if you save the MediaInfo and post it's contents here. You can obfuscate the contents of the tag fields, if you like, but to help, we need the tag type.
