Loopcast

About Loopcast

Loopcast keeps a single video looping as a live broadcast around the clock without an encoder, a spare PC or OBS running in the corner of a room. You upload one file, Loopcast re-encodes it to the destination platform's exact published broadcast specification — resolution, keyframe interval, bitrate and audio — and pushes it to your stream key from its own datacentre, supervising the connection and restarting it automatically if it drops. The primary use case is Steam store pages, where a looping trailer or gameplay reel means anyone opening the page during a game fest sees the title in motion; YouTube Live and Kick are supported the same way, differing only in the spec encoded to. Scheduling lets you book blocks of airtime in advance, so a trailer can run on the store page through working hours and a longer gameplay loop overnight, with the broadcast starting and stopping itself. Simulcasting to several platforms shares one encode, which is why the second and third destinations are discounted rather than billed at full rate. Every account gets 1,440 free minutes on sign-up — a full day of broadcasting — with no card required. The vendor publishes a knowledgebase covering pricing, billing and per-platform setup, and makes an explicit cost comparison against self-hosting with OBS.
