I want to create a 4-Hour fire loop. Sure you can just press loop on YouTube but I'd rather have the video be 4 hours. You guys know of any free programs that I could just loop something for 4 hours and then dump it on YouTube? I'd like the first do a campfire and then I'd like to do a Yule log for Christmas. Sure I guess I could record a 4 hour fire but I'd rather just loop something that I've recorded for a minute for 4 hours. is that retarded or does it makes sense?

>ffmpeg -stream_loop 3 -i input.mp4 -c copy output.mp4

>This can avoid re-encoding because it can use stream copy. 0 means no loop, -1 means infinite loop. This may not work with anything older than FFmpeg 4.0.

Looks like I have to go do this on my Linux box I reckon. I just thought there was something that I could do on my phone.

OpenShot on your phone.

I didn't know they had open shot for phone? I live under a rock apparently and it's not getting any better, LOL. surprised it wasn't suggested when I went to look for looping software.
