Create a looping background video — crossfade the loop point, encode optimized MP4 + WebM, optional poster frame. Use whenever the user has a video that needs to loop for web use (hero sections, backgrounds, landing-page ambience), wants to fix a visible jump at the loop point, or needs to optimize a clip for web delivery — even if they just say "make this loop smoothly" or "compress this for the site".
