Achieve Seamless Endless Loops with FFMPEGAPI.net

June 2026 FFMPEG API Team

In the realm of video processing, creating an endless loop can be a tedious task that often requires intricate server setups and management. However, with FFMPEGAPI.net, developers can effortlessly achieve seamless endless loops through a simple API call, freeing you from the complexities of managing FFmpeg infrastructure. This article will guide you through the process of using the Endless Loop endpoint to create video loops efficiently.

What is the Endless Loop Endpoint?

The Endless Loop endpoint allows you to loop a video until it reaches a specified target duration. This is particularly useful for background videos, advertising, or any scenario where you need a video to play continuously for a set period.

By using this endpoint, you can ensure that your video plays smoothly without interruptions, and you can also add optional watermark overlays if needed.

  • Loops a video to an exact target duration.
  • Trims the final loop if the duration isn't a perfect multiple of the source video length.
  • Supports optional watermark overlays.

How to Use the Endless Loop Endpoint

To use the Endless Loop feature, you'll need to send a POST request to the endpoint /api/endless_loop with the required parameters.

The parameters include the video URL you want to loop, the target duration in seconds, and optionally, a watermark image URL.

  • Endpoint: POST /api/endless_loop
  • Content-Type: application/json or form data
  • Parameters: video_url (required), duration (required), watermark_url (optional)
curl -X POST https://ffmpegapi.net/api/endless_loop \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "video_url": "https://example.com/clip.mp4", "duration": 1205 }'
import requests

url = 'https://ffmpegapi.net/api/endless_loop'
data = {"video_url": "https://example.com/clip.mp4", "duration": 1205}

response = requests.post(url, json=data)
print(response.json())
