# Video Loop

This block repeats a video to extend its duration, either to a specific length or a set number of repetitions.

## Loop Video

### What it is

Block to loop a video to a given duration or number of repeats.

### How it works

The block uses MoviePy's Loop effect to repeat a video clip. You can specify either a target duration (the video will repeat until reaching that length) or a number of loops (the video will repeat that many times). The Loop effect handles both video and audio looping automatically, maintaining sync. Either `duration` or `n_loops` must be provided. The output is encoded with H.264 video codec and AAC audio codec.

### Inputs

| Input     | Description                                                                                      | Type       | Required |
| --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------- | -------- |
| video\_in | The input video (can be a URL, data URI, or local path).                                         | str (file) | Yes      |
| duration  | Target duration (in seconds) to loop the video to. Either duration or n\_loops must be provided. | float      | No       |
| n\_loops  | Number of times to repeat the video. Either n\_loops or duration must be provided.               | int        | No       |

### Outputs

| Output     | Description                                                    | Type       |
| ---------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------- |
| error      | Error message if the operation failed                          | str        |
| video\_out | Looped video returned either as a relative path or a data URI. | str (file) |

### Possible use case

* Extending a short background video to match the length of narration audio
* Creating seamless looping content for digital signage
* Repeating a product demo video multiple times for emphasis
* Extending short clips to meet minimum duration requirements for platforms

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://agpt.co/docs/integrations/block-integrations/loop.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
