Hi gleninspirations,
Hard to tell without to see the file in question. The Material Library VX addon is by design a bit odd to use.
You need to make sure that the object where you want to assign the material to is really selected. As told in the video, sometimes it deselects the object without any visible reason. And then you need a second click to select it again.
Kind regards
Reiner
