As I found out MP3Tag shows ID header tags like "Title" or "Artist" for video files as well.
Can I edit these fields for all kind of video files (especially \*.MP4, \*.AVI, \*.MKV)?

see here for supported tag types:

Here is a small overview: [AAC - Advanced Audio Coding](http://www.audiocoding.com/) Read: ID3v1, ID3v2, APEv1, APEv2 Write: ID3v1, ID3v2, APEv2 Remove: ID3v1, ID3v2, APEv1, APEv2 [AIF / AIFC / AIFF - Audio Interchange File Format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_Interchange_File_Format) Read: ID3v2 Write: ID3v2 Remove: ID3v2 [APE - Monkey's Audio](http://www.monkeysaudio.com/) Read: ID3v1, APEv1, APEv2 Write: ID3v1, APEv2 Remove: ID3v1, ID3v2, APEv1, APEv2 [DSF - Direct Stream Digital](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Stream_Digital) Read: ID3v2 Write: ID3v2 Remove: ID3v2 [FLA…](http://flac.sourceforge.net/)
I doubt that AVI files have metadata - and even if that many players are able to read them.

The list above ~~is~~ was missing Matroska (`*.MKA`/`*.MKV`) — so yes, editing of video files is possible for `*.MKV` and `*.MP4`.
Please also note the [Tag fields exclusive to MP4](https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping) that Mp3tag supports (e.g., `TVEPISODE`, `TVSEASON`, ...).
