Loop YouTube Videos in 3 Easy Steps, No Software Required
It’s happened to me, to you, to everyone! You find a music video that is so good you can’t get enough of it. You want to hear it over and over and over again. YouTube is home to the most popular music videos of all-time, so no matter what song you want to hear, you’re sure to find it on the video-sharing website.
Until now, if you wanted to watch a video over and over again, you had to manually click the replay button or install extra software on your computer. Not anymore! YouTube has just introduced a new loop feature. You can listen to a song on repeat all day long, in 3 very easy steps.
Step 1 – Access the video in your desktop browser
Say you want to hear Adele’s 'Hello' on repeat. The first thing you have to do is access the video’s YouTube page in your desktop browser.
Step 2 – Enable the “loop” function
Right click the video and a context menu will show up. Go ahead and click on Loop. This will enable the Loop feature and tell YouTube you want it to play the video on repeat.
Step 3 – Repeat when necessary
The Loop function doesn’t stay on. You’ll have to enable it every time you want to play a video on repeat. Whenever you find such a video, just right click and select Loop.
Right now, Loop works on only on the desktop. The YouTube mobile app doesn’t have such a feature, not yet at least. Let’s hope that Google will add this feature in the near future.
Hello is the fastest video in YouTube history to get 1 billion views
PSY’s 'Gangnam Style' holds two records: it is the YouTube video with the most views of all-time and it is the first YouTube video to get 1 billion views. It used to hold a third record, the record for fastest video to get 1 billion views, but not anymore. That record has gone to Adele’s 'Hello'.
'Gangnam Style' needed 158 days to reach the 1 billion views milestone. Adele’s 'Hello' needed a lot less than that. It managed to get 1 billion views in only 87 days, which means it now holds the record for fastest video to reach 1 billion views.
The Billion View Club isn’t as exclusive as it used to be. A few years back, there were just 2 videos in the club: PSY’s 'Gangnam Style' and Just 'Bieber’s Baby' (who needed 4 years to get 1 billion views). Right now, there are 17 videos on YouTube that have more than 1 billion views.
The amount of time a video needs to get 1 billion views has been dropping at a faster rate for the past few of years. Here are some figures to put things in perspective
And then there's Adele’s 'Hello',posted in October 2015, which reached 1 billion views in a mere 87 days.
