June 2026 FFMPEG API Team

In today’s digital landscape, automating video workflows is essential for developers, especially when integrating video into AI agents and content pipelines. FFMPEGAPI.net offers a robust solution with its Video Loop endpoint, enabling developers to effortlessly loop videos without the need for intricate server setups. This article explores how to use the Video Loop feature effectively.

Understanding the Video Loop Endpoint

The Video Loop endpoint allows developers to loop a video either by a fixed number of times or until it matches an audio track's duration. This is particularly useful in scenarios where video content must synchronize with audio elements, such as in presentations, promotional videos, or AI-generated content.

With FFMPEGAPI.net, you gain access to a hosted REST API that requires no management of FFmpeg infrastructure, simplifying video processing tasks.

  • Loop videos by specifying a count.
  • Automatically adjust video length to match an audio track.
  • Support for optional watermark overlays.

How to Use the Video Loop API

To utilize the Video Loop functionality, send a POST request to the '/api/video_loop' endpoint. The API accepts JSON or form data, making it flexible for various developer environments.

You need to provide the video URL to loop and can optionally specify the number of loops, an audio URL for synchronization, and a watermark image URL.

  • Required: video_url (string)
  • Optional: number_of_loops (integer)
  • Optional: audio_url (string)
  • Optional: watermark_url (string)
import requests

url = 'https://www.ffmpegapi.net/api/video_loop'
headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
data = {
    'video_url': 'https://example.com/clip.mp4',
    'number_of_loops': 3
}
response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers)
print(response.json())
curl -X POST https://www.ffmpegapi.net/api/video_loop \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"video_url": "https://example.com/clip.mp4", "number_of_loops": 3}'
