Video Looping: A Channel That Never Signs Off

Pick a video or a whole pre-recorded playlist, flip the loop toggle, and Livepush restarts it automatically after the last video, over and over, 24/7, until you close it manually. Cloud playout keeps it live for weeks while your computer stays off.

How video looping works

A loop is the simplest way to be always live. You select one video or arrange several into a pre-recorded playlist, enable Loop playlist, and go live. When the last video ends, playback restarts from the first automatically; the stream itself never stops, and the play time counter just keeps climbing with an infinity sign beside it.

Everything runs from Livepush servers, so the loop survives your laptop's sleep mode, your office hours, and your holidays. It ends exactly once: when you close it manually.

Playlist loops
Live 24/7 Cloud playout Until you stop it
Seamless restarts
The jump from last video back to first happens inside the running stream. Viewers see continuous playback, not a stream ending.
Platform limits handled
Where a platform caps session length, like Facebook's 8 hours, Livepush restarts the session automatically so the channel stays up.
Content stays fresh
Swap or reorder videos while the loop is live. The channel never goes dark, even during a full content refresh.

One toggle: restart automatically after the last video

Looping is a single switch on your playlist. Off, the stream ends after the final video, which is right for scheduled shows. On, the playlist restarts from the top and the broadcast becomes open-ended, with play time counting toward infinity.

  • Loop playlist toggle on any pre-recorded broadcast
  • Play time shows elapsed runtime plus ∞ while looping is on
  • Ends only when you close the broadcast manually from the dashboard

Loop one video or a whole playlist

A single 10-minute ambience clip can run for a month, or a 12-video playlist can rotate like a TV channel's programming block. Videos play in order, back-to-back, and the loop wraps the entire lineup, not just one file.

Refresh the content without ending the stream

A 24/7 channel accumulates watch time, subscribers, and search ranking on its live URL. Ending the stream to change videos throws that away. With Change Videos, you swap, add, remove, and reorder playlist entries while the loop keeps broadcasting.

  • Swap or reorder videos mid-loop with the broadcast still live
  • Rotate weekly content into a channel that never goes offline
  • The live URL, chat, and viewer session survive every content change

Keep it seamless: match your resolutions

The dashboard warns you for a reason: videos with different resolutions force a format change at every transition, which viewers see as a glitch or a player reload. A loop that runs for weeks should be built from files that match.

  • Use the same resolution and frame rate for every video in the loop
  • The playlist shows each file's resolution so mismatches are easy to spot
  • Watch long-run health with stream monitoring

Video Looping:
Common Questions

Loop behaviour, runtime limits, live edits, and keeping transitions seamless.

How does video looping work?
Select a video or build a playlist of multiple videos, then enable the Loop playlist toggle. When the last video finishes, playback restarts automatically from the first, and the live stream continues without interruption. The loop keeps running 24/7 until you close it manually from the dashboard.
Can I loop a playlist of multiple videos, not just one?
Yes. The loop works on your whole pre-recorded playlist: one video or twenty. Videos play back-to-back in order, and after the last one the playlist restarts from the top, producing one continuous live broadcast.
How long can a looped stream run?
Until you stop it. There is no loop-count limit; the play time simply counts up with an infinity symbol next to it. Channels run looped content for days, weeks, and months. Where a platform caps individual session length (Facebook allows 8 hours per live session), Livepush restarts the session automatically so the channel stays live.
Does my computer need to stay on while the loop runs?
No. Looping runs entirely on Livepush servers. Once the loop is live you can shut your computer down; the stream keeps broadcasting from the cloud until you come back and stop it.
Can I change videos while the loop is live?
Yes. Use Change Videos to swap, add, remove, or reorder playlist entries while the broadcast is running. The stream stays live throughout, so you can refresh a 24/7 channel's content without ever going offline.
Why should all videos in a loop have the same resolution?
Mixing resolutions (for example a 1920×1020 video followed by a 1920×1080 one) forces a format change at every transition, which platforms handle poorly and viewers see as glitches or player reloads. Livepush warns you about mismatched resolutions in the playlist; keeping every video at the same resolution and frame rate gives seamless transitions.
Which platforms can a looped stream broadcast to?
The same 40+ destinations as any Livepush broadcast: YouTube, Facebook, Twitch, TikTok, custom RTMP endpoints, plus your own web player and HLS links. Looped 24/7 channels are most popular on YouTube.
Which plan supports 24/7 looping?
Continuous 24/7 looping is available on the Creators plan and above. The free plan and entry paid plans include scheduled pre-recorded streams with monthly hour limits, which is enough to test the loop workflow before upgrading.
