Looping YouTube videos can be a useful feature, especially when you want to repeat a favorite song or watch a tutorial over and over again. In this article, I will show you how to loop YouTube videos, using both the YouTube website and a handy browser extension.

Method 1: Loop YouTube Videos on the YouTube Website

If you prefer to loop videos directly on the YouTube website, follow these steps:

  1. Find the video you want to loop on the YouTube website.
  2. Right-click anywhere on the video player.
  3. In the context menu that appears, click on the “Loop” option.
  4. The video will now continuously repeat until you manually stop it.

This method is simple and doesn’t require any additional tools or extensions. However, it’s worth mentioning that not all YouTube videos support looping. If the “Loop” option is grayed out in the context menu, it means that the video doesn’t allow looping.

Method 2: Loop YouTube Videos with a Browser Extension

If you want more control over the looping feature or want to loop videos that don’t have the option available on the YouTube website, using a browser extension can be a great solution. Here, I’ll guide you through the process using the popular Google Chrome browser, but similar extensions are available for other browsers as well.

  1. Open the Chrome Web Store and search for a YouTube looping extension. Two popular options are “Looper for YouTube” and “Magic Actions for YouTube.”
  2. Select and install the extension of your choice by following the on-screen instructions.
  3. Once the extension is installed, open the YouTube video you want to loop.
  4. Look for the looping icon added by the extension near the video player controls.
  5. Click on the looping icon to activate the loop feature.
  6. The video will now loop continuously until you turn off the looping feature.

Using a browser extension gives you more flexibility in looping YouTube videos, such as adjusting the loop duration, creating playlists, and controlling other playback settings. Make sure to explore the options provided by the extension you choose to maximize your looping experience.

Conclusion

Looping YouTube videos can be a convenient way to repeat content and enhance your viewing experience. Whether you prefer using the built-in looping option on the YouTube website or using a browser extension for more advanced features, the choice ultimately comes down to your preference and the level of control you desire. So start looping those videos and enjoy your favorite content on repeat!
