YouTube loops

Replayer supports the YouTube video format and can be used as a simple YouTube looper application. Replayer enables you to permanently loop a YouTube video, or part of it.

How to create a YouTube video loop

In this example, you learn how to create a loop with the video shown above.

1. Copy the full YouTube URL (Credit: Telefunken)
2. Navigate to https://web.replayer.app
3. Paste the URL into the URL field in Replayer and click the "Use" button. This creates a new track with this YouTube video.
4. Click once on the loop toggle button to activate the "Loop Track" loop mode
5. Hit the green "Play" button
6. To loop in full screen mode, click the "Full Screen" icon on the video canvas (lower right corner)

Done. Your Video now runs full-screen, in an infinite loop.

Partial loop and annotation

By editing the track, you can further annotate it, and create cues.

• To loop only part of the track:
  • create a beginning and ending cue
  • select the beginning cue
  • choose the "Loop Cue" loop mode

Fading at the loop boundaries

By default, Replayer adds a minimal fade-in and fade-out to play/pause events. With YouTube video, this also includes a partial fade-to-black. You can control the fading behaviour:

• In the Settings, you can define global fade-in and fade-out durations (or none)
• The fade-in duration can be compensated with a pre-roll (on by default)
• For each track, you can toggle fading with the fading toggle button. For music practice, you most probably want to disable fading for loops.
