In the world of video content creation, having the ability to loop videos to fit specific time constraints is crucial. Whether you're developing a SaaS application or automating content workflows, FFMPEGAPI.net provides a powerful and easy-to-use hosted REST API for video and audio processing. This article will guide you through using the Endless Loop endpoint to loop videos effortlessly.

What is the Endless Loop Endpoint?

The Endless Loop endpoint at FFMPEGAPI.net allows developers to repeat a video until a specified target duration is reached. This feature is particularly useful for creating video content that fits within certain time limits, such as social media posts, advertisements, or background loops for events.

  • Repeat a video until a target duration is achieved.
  • Trim the final loop if the target duration isn't an exact multiple of the video's length.
  • Support for optional watermark overlays on the video.

How to Use the Endless Loop Endpoint

To utilize the Endless Loop feature, you must send a POST request to the /api/endless_loop endpoint with the required parameters. Here's how to set it up.

  • Required Parameters:
  • 1. **video_url**: URL of the video to be looped.
  • 2. **duration**: The target output duration in seconds.
  • Optional Parameter:
  • 3. **watermark_url**: URL for an optional watermark image.
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)
