You can make a very simple html page that contains the video and do it there.

Assuming you can host html somewhere.
Also, often can right click -> loop.
I know how to do this but I was hoping there was some way to build it into the url.
How about JavaScript which writes a simple html page. Any clue how I might go about that?
Javascript is overkill. Open a file on your desktop, name it whatever.html. Open it in notepad, put this in it. Save it, open it in your browser.
Lol I can understand what that does. The reason I am asking about JavaScript is that potentially I can use it like a url.
data:html,
Might work.
Edit: stupid html stripping. Ugh.
data:html,
data:html,
Fine, a paste bin. https://txt.t0.vc/PDIP
Thank you so much!! Data URLs were exactly what I was looking for with a little modification! Apparently chrome doesn't allow looping with audio unless it meets certain strict criteria per google. Here is my final URL:
data:text/html,
Cool. Can't see that data url. Use an image of pastebin like it did.
Ah the preview showed the html so I thought it would work.
Here is a pastebin: https://txt.t0.vc/CLMV
Nice.
When does it delete system32?
It should't matter, it should loop even if it's just the html file locally opened with a browser.
I wrote a quick bookmarklet for you:
javascript: (() => document.querySelectorAll("video").forEach(video => video.loop = true))();
You can paste this into the URL bar (and press Enter to apply) or add it as a bookmark (and apply by clicking on the bookmark), it will make all video elements on the page loop automatically. Caveats:
- It won't work if the video element is in a subframe (shouldn't be the case too often with normal pages)
- Only works for HTML5 video elements
- Custom controls might override the native loop, but they shouldn't
