Quicktime Player - Always Loop


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Does anyone know a way to modify the mac quicktime player so that the "loop" option under the "view" menu will always be checked?

e.g. Every file opened in quicktime will always be set to loop forever.

Thanks,

Kingers

p.s. I know other mac compatible players do this but I want to get this working with quicktime. :)

Solved it myself, I created this script:

on open of target_files

set theMovie to target_files

tell application "QuickTime Player"

activate

open theMovie

set the looping of document 1 to true

play document 1

end tell

end open

Compiled into application and set all movie files to open with.

    • I only had time to watch a few minutes of the keynote, but I get the impression that there isn't going to be that much to excite me with iOS/iPadOS/watchOS 26. Unifying aspects of all of the OSes I think in general has merit, but I do think Liquid Glass is largely nonsense and just fluff. I hope sheeple people don't drool over something as Liquid Glass. Some of this just seems to be shuffling the deck chairs of the Titanic botch job of Apple Intelligence and how largely useless Siri has been for 10 years. It ticks me off more than anything. Liquid Glass is just a retread from previous macOS and Windows releases (as everyone has stated). Improve things you already released (including Shortcuts and Automations) instead of giving me fluff.
    • I’m kind of wonder about said crowed as well…
    • Oh I didn't forget. This just show all around they are out of ideas now. Old UI is old UI. Having said that, I want the classic Windows theme back as an option in Win11. And I still say they copied Vista here. That doesn't look as much like Aqua to me.
    • Windows XP had a fantastic start menu, that for someone like me who doesn't like to spend a lot of times customizing things, worked fantastically!! I actually liked the Windows 7 menu a little better, the right-column of options was a little more useful, and it has a more appropriate number of frequently used apps (on XP you could increase this, which I always did). I never liked the 8/8.1 start screen at all, although I did like the concept of widgets. Windows 10's start menu seems like a great way to blend the good things about the Windows 7 menu with widgets, which I thought seemed promising. However, with widgets never becoming popular, it left the Windows 10 start menu looking like an ugly mess. I am not a huge fan of the Windows 11 start menu, but it looks clean and doesn't get in my way.
    • I think a lot of this is preemptive on the potential losing Google default search money which can hurt them.
