Effortless Video Looping with FFMPEGAPI.net: Your Cloud FFmpeg Alternative

June 2026 FFMPEG API Team

Looping videos can be a cumbersome task, especially if you're managing your own FFmpeg infrastructure. With FFMPEGAPI.net, you can leverage a robust hosted REST API that simplifies video and audio processing. In this article, we'll dive into the Video Loop feature that allows you to seamlessly repeat a video a specified number of times or until it matches an audio track.

What is the Video Loop API?

The Video Loop API provided by FFMPEGAPI.net is a powerful tool that helps developers automate video processing workflows. This API allows you to loop a video either by specifying a number of repetitions or by calculating the required loops to sync with an audio track.

  • Supported video formats include MP4, MKV, and more.
  • Easily integrate into your existing applications without server setup.
  • Ideal for developers working on SaaS applications, content pipelines, and AI agents.

How to Use the Video Loop API

To utilize the Video Loop feature, you need to make a POST request to the endpoint /api/video_loop. This endpoint accepts several parameters to customize your video looping needs.

  • video_url: The URL of the video you want to loop (required).
  • number_of_loops: The number of times to repeat the video (optional).
  • audio_url: The URL of an audio track to match (required if number_of_loops is omitted).
  • watermark_url: An optional URL for a watermark image.
curl -X POST https://ffmpegapi.net/api/video_loop -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"video_url": "https://example.com/clip.mp4", "number_of_loops": 3}'
import requests

url = 'https://ffmpegapi.net/api/video_loop'
data = {"video_url": "https://example.com/clip.mp4", "number_of_loops": 3}
response = requests.post(url, json=data)
print(response.json())
