    I'll assume you want to know if it's possible to export video that automatically loops.  Sorry, but the answer is no.  You would need another application that can loop the video as it plays.

    Rich Harrington does a nice tutorial on short, small file size looped video using a mix of masked stills and video he calls cinemagraphs, done in Photoshop.  It's on Lynda.com.  He has a neat trick to blend the ends.  It's well done, as all of his stuff is. Some of it may be on his website too.

    The VLC player has a loop button if you are simply trying to get something to play over and over without you having to restart it, say at a trade show booth.
