# Seamless video looping in Premiere (2025-11-02 20:29Z)

I'm trying to seamlessly loop a video in premiere. I have a morph cut that works really well, but I can't get it to work so that the final frame looks identical to the first frame. I can get it to loop on itself infinitely with morph cuts, but I want to get that in the video file itself so it loops properly in OBS.

To export a seamless loop from Premiere so OBS plays it back seamlessly:
|
||
|
||
1. Ensure the loop point frames match:
|
||
- Set an In/Out range around the morph cut.
|
||
- Trim to a frame boundary at both ends.
|
||
- Optionally add a 1-frame freeze (copy of first frame) at the end if needed.
|
||
|
||
2. Export settings:
|
||
- Set the In/Out range to include the full loop.
|
||
- Use an export format that preserves frames and avoids frame drops (e.g., H.264 with high quality, or ProRes if possible).
|
||
- Disable frame blending or other post-processing that could alter frames.
|
||
|
||
3. Verify frame match:
|
||
- In the Timeline, place the playhead at the start and end frames.
|
||
- Check in Program Monitor (step frame-by-frame) that the last frame matches the first frame.
|
||
|
||
If the morph cut in the preview looks seamless but the export doesn’t:
|
||
- The transition may be interpolated: duplicate the first frame at the end, then export.
|
||
- Try a different export codec/settings that better preserves frames.
|
||
|
||
Should I help you verify the codec/settings or automate any trimming/freeze frame steps?
