How to Loop a Pre-recorded Stream?

OneStream Live allows you to loop your pre-recorded video so it plays repeatedly during a single broadcast, helping you extend your stream without manually restarting the video. Number of times you can loop The number of loops depends on two limits, and the lower one applies: - Your plan's maximum pre-recorded stream duration. All loops together must fit inside it: Basic 1 hour, Standard 3 hours, Professional 8 hours, Enterprise 20 hours. - 60 loops at most, whatever the plan. The loop count includes the first play, and only complete plays count. A video cannot stop partway through its last loop. Maximum loops = your plan's duration ÷ your video's length, rounded down (never more than 60). ::tip:: For example, on the Standard plan a 1-hour video can loop 3 times, a 50-minute video 3 times and a 10-minute video 18 times. ::tabs:: ::tab: Web App:: You can loop your content with the Web app, following these steps: Steps: - From your dashboard, click Pre-recorded Stream.
