  1. Basic Embed Code: Start with the standard YouTube embed code for the video you want to loop

  2. Add Loop Parameter: To enable looping, append loop=1 to the URL parameters.

  3. Add Playlist Parameter: You must also include the playlist parameter with the same video ID as the video you want to loop. This is necessary for the loop feature to work correctly.

Here’s how your final embed code should look:

Example with a Specific Video ID

For instance, if your video ID is 1O0yazhqaxs, the complete embed code would be:

Additional Options

  • Autoplay: If you want the video to start playing automatically, add autoplay=1 and mute=1 to the URL
