VLC is a versatile media player that can play most video formats. One feature of VLC media player allows users to loop a video, meaning when the video reaches its end, it will immediately start playing again from the beginning. The video will continue to loop until the user stops the looping process.
Many users like to use the looping feature to continuously play a favorite video "in the background" while doing some other task. If, for instance, a user were vacuuming his house, he would not have to stop vacuuming to restart the video because the looping feature would restart the video automatically.
