Continuous loop

Your videos play in order and the playlist loops when it ends. The stream continues until you stop it.

Sample playlist view.

While you’re live

Change the loop
without stopping it

Skip to the next video or update the playlist while you’re live. Even a broken file won’t take the stream down.

  • Skip to next

    Don’t wait for the current video to finish. Jump to the next one without interrupting the stream.

  • Update the playlist while live

    When you edit a saved playlist, live streams using it continue in the new order. The videos just need to share the same orientation.

  • An unplayable video won’t stop the stream

    If a file can’t be played, it’s skipped and the next one starts. The reason shows in your dashboard under “Skipped videos.”

How to loop a video
on a YouTube live stream

Once your videos are ready, setup takes a few minutes.

  1. 01

    Upload your videos

    Upload your pre-recorded videos as MP4, MOV, MKV or similar files. We convert each one to a stream-ready format in the background.

  2. 02

    Build your playlist

    Choose one video or several, in the order you want. Turn on Continuous loop so the playlist starts over when it ends.

  3. 03

    Add your key and press start

    Paste your YouTube stream key and press start. The loop keeps running from our servers until you stop it.

Why every video in the loop matches

Each video is converted to this one profile on upload, so resolution, frame rate and codec don’t change when the next video starts. Nothing is re-encoded while live.

Is looping allowed
on YouTube?

Yes, within limits. Here’s what YouTube’s rules mean for a stream that runs on repeat.

  • Looping recorded video

    YouTube doesn’t cap live stream length, and looping recorded videos isn’t prohibited by itself.

    Allowed

  • Ads on a looping stream

    YouTube treats repetitive or mass-produced content as ineligible for monetization. A longer, varied playlist is a safer choice than one short clip.

    Check the rules

  • Music and footage you didn’t make

    YouTube scans live streams for third-party content, and a match can interrupt or end your stream. You need the rights to everything in the loop.

    Your responsibility

  • Recordings of long streams

    Streams over 12 hours may not be saved to your channel as a video. The stream itself doesn’t stop.

Looping questions

How the loop works, and what you can change while it runs.

Can I loop just one video?

Yes. A stream can use a single video or a playlist. With Continuous loop on, it starts over whenever it ends.

Can I turn the loop off?

Yes. Continuous loop is a switch on each stream. Keep it on for a 24/7 stream.

Can I change the order while the loop is running?

Yes. Add, remove or reorder videos from the live queue without stopping the stream. Changes apply after the current video ends.

Can I mix landscape and vertical videos?

No. All videos in a playlist need the same orientation, either all landscape or all vertical.

Will viewers notice when the playlist restarts?

The stream itself doesn’t stop. Every file is converted to the same format on upload, so videos are sent one after another with no re-encoding. Viewers simply see the first video start again.
