QuickTime Player can be downloaded and used on non-Mac operating systems, but this guide is written based on MacOS as it is pre-installed there.
It is a program commonly used to play video and audio, but it can also be used for screen recording. The QuickTime Player program is included with every MacOS installation (at least in 10.5 and later). It is a way to record your screen and show it. Of course if the video you want to loop is online and accessible from the web, many web based video players allow the same playback features, and you can easily loop YouTube videos directly in the browser without any added software, and without downloading the video to the computer.Screen recording are perfect for education or to make a quick and simple way to show how to do something on your computer. The QuickTime Player looping trick obviously requires a video to be stored locally on the Mac hard drive, or accessible through a network volume. There’s nothing wrong with that and that’s how most people want to repeat a video anyway, but the backward loop option is kind of nice, available in a variety of third party apps. Thus, when the video ends in QuickTime, it loops back to the beginning of the video and plays again from the start. Some apps like VLC and MplayerX allow for looping forward and back and back to forward again, but QuickTime Player only allows video looping in the regular forward playback direction. QuickTime Player will even loop a video that is fast forwarding or set to play at a faster or slower playback rate, so even if you set a movie to play at 32x it will still loop repeatedly at that fast forward rate. In the example video looped here, we’re taking a time lapse recording from an iPhone and playing it repeatedly in a loop. Start playing the video as usual, when the movie ends it will automatically start at the beginning again in a loop, playing endlessly and repeatedly until stopped, closed, or paused.Pull down the “View” menu and choose “Loop”.Open the video you want to play in a loop repeatedly within QuickTime Player on the Mac.Playing a video in a continuous loop is just a matter of selecting the loop option for that particular movie within QuickTime for Mac OS X, here’s all you need to do: Looping a Played Video Repeatedly in QuickTime
