Media Looper

The media looper is the perfect utility for any streamer. It can replace a sponsorship banner, social media popup, and playlist source.

It allows you to show videos and images on your stream in a playlist while adding a delay in-between each file or after the entire playlist.

Video Tutorial

Setting up the Media Looper

  1. Drop the files you want looped into the _media folder

  2. Name the files with just a number, in order you want them to play (lowest first)

    We recommending selecting View > File Name Extensions in your folder explorer. Ensure your file names are similar to 1.png 2.webm 3.mp4 etc.

  3. In your streaming software add a browser source

  4. Select the Local File option and choose the HTML file found in the Loops folder > Type of Loop You Want to Use. The file names represent the amount of delay between the loop type.
