If you want to add a video to something you call an “IRL Pro YouTube loop”, first identify which loop you mean: a YouTube playlist that repeats, a live broadcast sent through IRL Pro, or a continuous prerecorded stream. These are different workflows, and the available product information does not show IRL Pro as having a built-in YouTube playlist editor or loop control.
For a regular YouTube playlist, add the video through YouTube’s playlist controls and then turn on repeat playback. For a live broadcast, IRL Pro’s role is sending the broadcast to a destination such as YouTube. For an always-on stream assembled from prerecorded material, a separate service may manage the video loop. The screen-by-screen method for editing the specific loop you have in mind is not established by the sources here, so use the distinctions below before changing settings.
First identify what “IRL Pro YouTube loop” means
The word “loop” can refer to repeat playback of an ordinary YouTube video or playlist. It can also mean a livestream that keeps running and cycles through prerecorded material. Those outputs may look similar to a viewer who sees the same content again, but they are controlled in different places.
A YouTube playlist is a collection managed on YouTube. Its repeat control makes the playlist play again; YouTube also documents how to repeat one video within a playlist. The repeat control changes playback behaviour. It does not, by itself, add a new video to the playlist. You need to manage the playlist contents separately.
IRL Pro is described on its official site as a streaming application that can send a broadcast to YouTube and other destinations. That is a broadcast workflow, not evidence of a playlist-editing feature. A third interpretation is a dedicated service for continuous prerecorded output. FizzyPeak documents a separate 24/7 Loop service with VOD loop and video playlist modes; it should not be treated as a native feature of IRL Pro or YouTube.
| What you mean by “loop” | Where the content is managed | What the viewer receives | What to change |
|---|---|---|---|
| A video or playlist repeating on YouTube | YouTube playlist and playback controls | Ordinary YouTube video or playlist playback | Add the video to the playlist, then enable repeat |
| A livestream sent through IRL Pro | The broadcast setup and destination connection | A live broadcast on YouTube | Configure the source and outgoing connection; this does not add playlist items |
| A continuous stream of prerecorded material | A suitable streaming service’s configuration | A YouTube live broadcast, if the service supports that destination | Check the service’s supported sources, playlist behaviour and current terms |
If you are unsure, look at the screen where you expect to add the video. A playlist page, a live-stream connection screen and a 24/7 service dashboard are not interchangeable. If you cannot identify it, note the product name and screen heading before following a tutorial; that is more useful than trying settings from a different workflow.
Repeat an individual YouTube video
If your goal is to hear one bhajan again, replay a study recording, or keep one ambience video playing, you may not need IRL Pro at all. YouTube’s help page explains repeat controls for an individual video and for playlists. Start with the video’s playback options and check whether the control you need applies to the current video or to a playlist.
When the video is in a playlist, YouTube’s documented repeat behaviour includes repeating a single video within that playlist. That is useful when the playlist is the right home for the content but you want one item to play again rather than moving on. The distinction matters: enabling repeat is not the same as editing the playlist order or adding another file.
YouTube’s official help for repeating playlists and videos is the appropriate reference for the control itself. Its page covers playback behaviour, but the material reviewed for this guide does not establish exact add-video labels for every device or app version. Avoid assuming that a desktop instruction will match a television, phone or embedded player. If a control is absent, confirm which interface you are using and consult YouTube’s current help for it.
This route produces normal YouTube playback, not a livestream. A viewer sees the video or playlist in the usual YouTube context, and the playback depends on that viewer’s YouTube session. If what you need is a live channel that remains on air while your own device is off, repeating a video in a normal player does not create that broadcast. For a separate look at continuous broadcast setups, see our guide to looping a playlist on YouTube Live continuously in India.
Repeat an existing YouTube playlist
For a playlist that already contains the videos you want, the task is to turn on playlist repeat. If the new video is not in the playlist yet, add it through YouTube’s playlist controls first, then play the playlist and enable repeat. YouTube’s repeat function does not populate the playlist for you.
Keep the two actions separate while troubleshooting. If the new video plays once and then the playlist continues without it, check that the video was added to the intended playlist. If the playlist stops after its final item, check the repeat control. Changing a broadcast destination or reconnecting IRL Pro will not correct either of those playlist issues.
The precise controls can vary across YouTube interfaces, and the cited help page is evidence for repeat behaviour rather than a universal, device-by-device recipe for adding items. Use YouTube’s own current instructions for the interface you have open, and verify that the playlist actually contains the new entry before relying on repeat. A short test with the playlist open can confirm the content order and playback behaviour without involving a livestream setup.
A playlist that repeats in a viewer is also not equivalent to an always-on live channel. It is ordinary playlist playback, not a broadcast being sent to YouTube Live. If you need the latter, choose a workflow designed to produce a continuous live output and test it separately. Our guide to setting up a YouTube Live stream that plays recorded videos overnight addresses that different use case.
Understand what IRL Pro does in a broadcast
IRL Pro belongs in the broadcast path. Its official description says the application can stream to YouTube and other destinations. In practical terms, you select or configure where the outgoing broadcast goes and send a live source to that destination. That does not establish that the app edits a YouTube playlist or supplies a playlist-repeat command.
A third-party setup guide describes preparing a live stream in YouTube Studio, then saving the RTMP URL and stream key as an outgoing IRL Pro connection. That is a destination setup: it connects a broadcast app with a YouTube live stream. It should not be recast as an official IRL Pro support instruction, and it does not describe adding video items to a YouTube playlist. The connection information identifies where the live broadcast is sent; it is not a list of videos to be played in sequence.
If this is the workflow you meant, first decide what IRL Pro will broadcast. A live camera or mobile source is a different input from a prepared sequence of recorded files. The source reviewed here does not provide a definitive screen-by-screen method for turning an existing IRL Pro connection into a prerecorded video playlist. Do not infer that you can insert files into the outgoing destination settings simply because those settings are associated with YouTube.
For a live broadcast, use YouTube Studio’s current live-stream setup guidance and IRL Pro’s current app information, and treat a third-party guide as a separate source whose steps may change. Do not share your stream key publicly: it is part of the connection configuration, not a viewer-facing playlist address. If you want an overview of the trade-offs in running prerecorded video continuously, our spare-PC guide for a 24/7 YouTube music stream covers a different approach and its operating considerations.
Consider FizzyPeak’s separate 24/7 Loop service
FizzyPeak documents a 24/7 Loop feature as a separate service, with a VOD loop and a video playlist mode. That makes it a possible interpretation if you are looking at an always-on prerecorded stream rather than YouTube’s ordinary repeat controls or IRL Pro’s outgoing broadcast connection. It is not evidence of an IRL Pro feature, and it should not be described as a native YouTube playlist loop.
The service’s own help page is the primary place to check what it documents. The information available for this article does not establish that arbitrary YouTube URLs can be added, nor does it supply complete steps for changing an existing loop. Before you choose this route, confirm which source types it accepts, whether an existing loop can be edited, what happens when you add or replace material, and whether the destination is a YouTube live broadcast.
Also check current service terms directly. A help page describing a feature does not settle present plan availability, supported formats or account conditions. Those can change, so do not rely on an old tutorial or assume that “video playlist” means any playlist hosted on YouTube. If your files are local recordings, ask whether the service accepts those files in the format you have. If the content is already a YouTube playlist, verify separately whether the service can use it rather than assuming a URL will work.
This route may suit someone who wants a prerecorded channel to continue without keeping a personal computer running. It may be the wrong route if you simply want a YouTube playlist to repeat for a viewer, or if you are using IRL Pro to send a live camera broadcast. The first decision is the output you need; only then compare the tools that can provide it.
Choose a workflow for adding videos
Once you have identified the desired output, choose the workflow that owns the content. For ordinary playback, add the item to a YouTube playlist and enable the relevant repeat control. For an IRL Pro broadcast, configure the broadcast source and destination; adding a playlist item is not part of that destination connection. For a prerecorded 24/7 broadcast, confirm a service’s source support and loop-editing process before moving content into it.
Write down three things before making a change: where the video currently lives, what the viewer should see, and which screen currently controls the loop. For example, if a local recording needs to join a YouTube playlist, the key question is whether it is available as a YouTube video to add. If a local file needs to play as part of a live channel, the key question is which broadcast workflow accepts it and how it schedules or repeats content. The same file can require different steps depending on the output.
| Your requirement | Sensible first check | Common mistaken assumption |
|---|---|---|
| One item repeats in regular YouTube playback | YouTube’s repeat control for a video or playlist | That repeating adds another copy to the playlist |
| A new item joins an existing YouTube playlist | The playlist’s content-management controls | That IRL Pro’s destination settings edit the playlist |
| A live source goes to YouTube | The YouTube live setup and IRL Pro outgoing connection | That a live connection is a video queue |
| Recorded files run continuously as a live channel | Supported input and loop-editing process of the chosen service | That any YouTube playlist or URL is accepted |
When you test a change, verify it at the right layer. For playlist playback, inspect the playlist and playback controls. For a broadcast, confirm the outgoing destination and the live output. For a dedicated loop service, verify both the uploaded or selected content and the resulting broadcast. A successful connection test only proves that a broadcast can reach its destination; it does not prove that the intended video order or repeat behaviour is correct.
If you need the stream to continue while your own device is switched off, that requirement narrows the choice further. A viewer-side repeat control depends on a viewer’s playback session, while a broadcast workflow must keep producing the live output. For planning around a continuous stream, see our guide to data use for a 24/7 YouTube live video loop in India. The operating needs differ from simply pressing repeat on a playlist.
Check the control or service that owns the loop
Troubleshooting is quickest when you identify the owner of each action. YouTube owns the playlist content and repeat playback controls described in its help. IRL Pro is the broadcast app in the live connection workflow. FizzyPeak documents its own separate continuous prerecorded loop feature. A setting in one place should not be expected to perform an action owned by another.
If a video does not appear in playback, confirm whether it was actually added to the playlist you are viewing. If it appears but playback ends at the last item, check repeat. If a YouTube live broadcast is not receiving the expected material, check the selected source and connection rather than the playlist repeat button. If a separate service is involved, use its own documentation to confirm that the input type and editing action are supported.
Keep a simple record of the change when testing: which playlist or live setup you changed, what content you expected, and what happened at the end of the sequence. That makes it easier to distinguish a missing playlist item from a repeat setting or a broadcast-source issue. Avoid changing multiple controls at once, because then a successful or failed result does not tell you which change mattered.
The exact method for editing the particular “existing loop” in the title remains dependent on what product or screen that phrase refers to. If the choice is still unclear, identify the screen heading or service name and ask its support channel whether it manages a YouTube playlist, a live destination, or a prerecorded VOD loop. Do not send a stream key in a public question. This is a safer next step than applying instructions for another system.

FAQ
Can I add a video to a YouTube loop through IRL Pro?
The available documentation does not establish that IRL Pro edits YouTube playlists or provides a built-in loop feature. If you mean a regular playlist, manage its contents in YouTube and then use YouTube’s repeat controls. IRL Pro’s documented role is sending a broadcast to a destination.
Does turning on repeat add a video to my playlist?
No. Repeat controls govern playback behaviour; they do not add a video to the playlist. Add the video through the playlist’s own controls, confirm it appears there, then enable repeat if you want the playlist or one item to play again.
Is FizzyPeak 24/7 Loop part of IRL Pro?
The available evidence describes FizzyPeak’s 24/7 Loop as a separate service, not a native IRL Pro or YouTube playlist feature. Its help page documents VOD loop and video playlist modes, but check current source support and terms directly before relying on it.
What information should I provide if I need help with the existing loop?
Name the product or service and describe the screen where you expect to add the video. Say whether the intended result is ordinary YouTube playlist playback or an always-on live broadcast. That lets support distinguish a playlist-editing question from an outgoing broadcast or a separate prerecorded-loop configuration.
