Looping is normally a function of whatever player you are using.
Most players can be manually set to loop, repeat, continuous play, etc.
Most video has a start and end and there is no looping built into the actual video file.
Some exceptions would be Flash video or animated GIF's to name a couple.

Things you can do.
1. Manually set the player to repeat the video and then open and play the video.
2. Join X number of copies of the video together so that it will appear to loop x number of times.
3. Create a metafile to open the player, set it to repeat, and then open the video. Metafiles like .asx, .ram, .smil all have command attributes to do this.
