Looping a YouTube video is one of the most useful tricks for anyone who learns by repetition — musicians, language learners, dancers, and students all rely on it daily. In this guide, we cover three methods to loop YouTube videos, from the built-in option to the most powerful tool available: InfiniteLooper.
Method 1: YouTube's Built-in Loop (Right-Click)
YouTube has a native loop feature, but it's hidden. Here's how to find it:
- Open any YouTube video in your browser.
- Right-click directly on the video player (not on the controls bar).
- A context menu appears — select "Loop".
- The video will now repeat from the beginning every time it ends.
Limitation: This only loops the entire video. You cannot set a custom start or end point (A/B loop). If you want to repeat only a specific section, you need one of the methods below.
Method 2: Loop an Embedded YouTube Player
For website developers, YouTube documents a loop=1 parameter for embedded players. A single video also needs its ID in the playlist parameter. This applies to the embed player; adding the parameters to a normal youtu.be link is not a reliable section-loop method.
See the official YouTube loop parameter documentation. For practising a specific passage without writing embed code, use AB points in a looper.
Method 3: InfiniteLooper — Full AB Loop Control (Best Method)
If you need to loop a specific section of a YouTube video — a guitar riff, a pronunciation exercise, a dance move — then InfiniteLooper gives you AB loop controls. Its core looping features are free and work in your browser.
- Go to InfiniteLooper.tube.
- Paste your YouTube video URL into the search bar.
- Use the A slider to set where the loop starts, and the B slider to set where it ends.
- Click Play — the video will loop infinitely between those two points.
- Optionally, adjust the playback speed (from 0.25x to 2x) to slow down or speed up the section.
