How do I play a video on loop?

Biteable videos don’t loop on their own — whether a video repeats depends on the player or platform you share it on, so this guide covers per-platform settings for cases like a booth or office screen.

If you want to play a video on loop, the player or system where you are sharing the video is important. We will share suggestions for various platforms. These suggestions are for use cases like playing a video on loop at a conference booth, or on a screen in an office where you want visitors or viewers to watch the information and have it loop over and over again.

Step 1

  • Download the video from Biteable to get the mp4 of your published video.

Step 2

  • Figure out what you will be using to play the video. We have provided instructions on different platforms below.

Platforms

YouTube

  • Upload your video to YouTube
  • Go to the video link
  • Right click on the video
  • Select "Loop video"

Windows Media Player

  • Play a video in Windows Media Player, or drag and drop a video file to it.
  • On the Now Playing window, click on a "Repeat" button on the bottom toolbar, which looks like an arrow going in a circle. Alternatively, you can also right-click on the screen and enable "Repeat" option on the menu list or press shortcut keys: Ctrl + T.
  • Once this button is highlighted, the video will be played on a continuous loop until you disable it or close Windows Media Player.

QuickTime

  • Open the video you want to loop in QuickTime Player.
  • Click on "View" and select the "Loop" option. A checkmark will appear next to it, indicating that looping is enabled.
  • Press the play button or spacebar to start the video. It will now play continuously, restarting automatically once it reaches the end.
