Embed LoopTube

Last updated: July 2026

Add YouTube video looping to your website with our free embed API — no API key required.

Quick Start

Drop this into any page, replacing VIDEO_ID with a YouTube video ID:

<div style="max-width:100%;width:640px">
  <iframe
    src="https://looptube.xyz/embed/VIDEO_ID?start=10&end=30&tempo=70&theme=dark"
    width="100%"
    height="820"
    style="border:0;border-radius:12px;display:block"
    allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share"
    allowfullscreen
  ></iframe>
</div>

This loops seconds 10–30 of the video at 70% speed with the dark theme. The easiest way to get this snippet for a specific video is the embed code generator right on the homepage — it fills in the current video and loop points for you.

URL Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description	Example
`VIDEO_ID`	string, required	YouTube video ID, given as part of the path.	`/embed/dQw4w9WgXcQ`
`start`	number	Loop start time in seconds.	`10.5`
`end`	number	Loop end time in seconds.	`30.75`
`tempo`	number	Playback speed as a percentage, 25–200.	`70`
`autoplay`	boolean	Attempt autoplay (browser permitting).	`1`
`loop`	boolean	Alias for autoplay when start/end are set — an "open and play" embed for teaching.	`1`
`theme`	string	"dark" (default), "light", or "auto" (follows the visitor's OS setting).	`light`
`controls`	string	"full" (default) or "minimal" — minimal hides fine-tune, shift, and skip controls for a slimmer embed.	`minimal`

Backward compatible: older embeds using the query form looptube.xyz/embed?vid=VIDEO_ID keep working — new embeds should use the path form above.

  { label: "Chorus", start: 30, end: 45 }
];

function loadSection(section) {

  document.getElementById('player').src = url;
}
</script>
