How are you setting the tags?  With what program?

mp4... never used it.  Its tagging scheme is probably completely different
from the schemes used in mp3s.  Checking the ebuilds gives me only one lead,
the easytag program.  I would install and try that GTK+ program on a file
with known good mp4 tags, then try the same program on a file without them,
and find the differences and correct them/whatever.
